Toxins in Compost Geoff Lawton Permaculture

[spacetrashxxx]

i bought some compost couple of years back by a green startup that was recycling yard green waste and after a couple years they had samples sent to a lab,which came back as toxic with herbicides,etc. that were supposed to break down in six months.anyway just about anything i tried to grow in this stuff died within a couple of days.so maybe the composting seems to have concentrated this stuff or perhaps there is too much to break rapidly because of over fertilization to begin with.

What do you think about GMO's? Do you think they would be okay to put in the compost pile? Would they break down and get rid of the gmo?
