I got myself an indoor trashcan w/ a flip up lid and pull out bucket to keep my compost stuff in (so I don't have to run outside in the snow all the time.) I forgot to empty it into my outside compost bin before I left on vacation. When I came back it was very stinky and had fuzzy white mold all over everything. I dumped it in the yard, but didn't add it to my compost. I am worried about that mold causing problems if I put the compost w/ edibles this year - should I be worried about that? I don't really do much w/ my compost - just dump things in the bin (it is round and can be rolled to mix stuff up, but I haven't done that since the fall) - I don't know how hot it is or if that matters with the mold. I am really a newbie at all this and would appreciate any advice anyone can give me. Also, can I put fireplace ashes in compost or would that be bad for the soil? Thanks!
