Just a thought. Anybody tried putting cardboard through the Garden shredder
whilst shredding garden stuff and mixing the two that way? Come to that,
anybody put cardboard through the shredder?

I don't even do that much. I just flatten stuff out. (Worms congregate
underneath) Except for large cardboard boxes (2ft square) which I use as
receptacles for weeds, then put on top of the heap - it's useful at this
time of the year when I'm adding a lot to the heaps - it means I can
extend the heap another 2ft higher by building a wall of weed-filled
cardboard boxes ;-)
