Dr. Russell Sharp explains why pouring liquidised food waste or adding uncomposted plant material to soil or lawns can harm plant growth. Microbes decomposing fresh organic matter use up available nitrogen, causing nutrient deficiency and chlorosis in plants, and the practice can also attract pests like rodents and rabbits.
Advice: always compost organic waste first or boost nitrogen levels if you must add fresh material, and avoid leaving food scraps on borders to prevent pest problems.
