Hi and Happy Thanksgiving from zone 8b, Conroe, TX.

"How do you use bananas for compost?" We have successfully transplanted pups from a 40 yr old mat to better areas. (Thanks for the tips!) It's time for the old mat of huge trees to come "out".

I'd appreciate your ideas.

Chop them up just like any other yard waste (a chipper works great) and throw them in a tumbler or start a pile.
Search the board for "compost" there's some other threads about composting bananas.
