I swear I read somewhere that it's not good to add freshly made compost to a veggie garden, but now I can't seem to find the site I read it on. It said to wait an extra month or two after the compost is finished before using it in a vegetable garden. I can't figure out the logic in this. Hoping someone can enlighten me ;)
Thanks!
