Re: Good TRASH or bad TRASH????

Todd,

My mother once (and only ONCE) picked up gin trash from a local
cotton gin outside of Phoenix, AZ.  It made a good mulch.  The
trash was mostly made up of seeds - and many, many of them sprouted.

It was fun for us kids to play with the cotton we grew that year, but
my Mom wasn't all that amused.
