My zucchini plants have a white powder on it's leaves. When the plant dies, can I put the leaves surrounded by my compost bin?
Answers:    yes, that's fine to put into compost bin, I always do, never a problem.
Sometimes they're not here in the garden where on earth the vines started out and they break down quickly and they're gone by subsequent season, never a problem.
Provide the compost heats up properly,the leaves should be OK.The description sounds resembling powdery mildew,which will be destroyed by efficient composting.
