Do we put the potato haulms on the compost or not. I say yes Hubbie says not. I do know that you don't put tatties on there but thought the leaves and stems were ok

I would say yes, compost them, as long as you are absolutely certain that there is no sign of blight.

Stems and leaves are fine. Blight can only survive in living tissue, and there's no chance of these coming out alive.
