Can I Compost Cardboard With Plastic Labels? In this informative video, we’ll discuss the best practices for composting cardboard, specifically focusing on the importance of removing plastic labels and coatings. Cardboard is a fantastic carbon source that helps balance the nitrogen-rich materials in your compost, which is essential for creating soil that nurtures healthy plants. However, many gardeners may not realize that plastic labels do not break down in compost and can introduce non-biodegradable materials that hinder the composting process. We’ll cover why it’s important to choose plain, uncoated cardboard for your compost pile and how shredding it can speed up decomposition. By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your composting efforts are effective and beneficial for your garden. Healthy soil is key to supporting robust plant growth, and using clean cardboard is a great way to contribute to that.
