What to do with veg grow bags if tomato may have had blight

[Maggiethecat]

picked all tomatoes and cut down plants grown in grow bags. I’m not sure if I some had blight - a few stems looked dark but that might be the cold?

wondering what to do with the compost in the bags. Can I put it in my flower beds?

The blight will only affect potatoes and tomato relatives, so a general flowerbed should be fine.

Great, I’ve got a whisky half barrel to fill up to plant a magnolia so will use it there!

Then other issue is that tomato plants are very hungry. There won't be many nutrients left in the compost - particularly for apermanent planting like a tree. You'd need to supplement. And composts for potted trees are usually designed to be relatively light, and to have better control of moisture vs drainage than a general growbag.

I'd use it to mulch a bed rather than fill a pot.

Oops! Already done the deed but I did mix in some top soil, compost and chicken manure. Hope that’s enough to get the tree going and perhaps I can top up with some compost/ manure in the spring.
