	  Said "Welcome to Bananas" 0 Times |  dried olive leaves uses?? hello guys I have a lot of dried olive leaves and I want use it but I dont know how I'm thinking to use it as a mulch for my bananas or use it in my compost pile the thing that make me not sure about using olive leaves is the leaves are very hard compare other tree leaves and also it breaks down very slowly plus I never know any one used it but it a shame to ignore this amount of organic matter |

 There are also videos which can teach you how to compost yard waste . There are soil and compost forums on the internet which can give an insight to the process of composting. | |
