I eat oranges for Britain and we use lemons to boot, all of the peel goes into the compost bin as does rhubarb leaves which are also acidic. As we have lots of Blueberries I have a ph kit to check the soil and tested our compost bin contents.
Result, well unless you eat many dozens of lemons or oranges a week, throw them in the compost bin with impunity. Oh and we do have lots of worms in the bins, they just dont like the citrus peel or rhubarb leaves but then they dont like onions skins or leek trimmings either. |
