Finally, some zombies are magical and don't rot further over time; they reach a certain stage of decomposition very quickly and stay that way forever, in which case your compost will simply never finish.
If you find yourself in the Walking Dead universe, composting zombie flesh is probably fine as long as you handle your compost pile carefully. "
My first concern with composting zombies is, how do you keep them in the compost pile long enough to compost? I'm envisioning hands crawling away, torsos dragging themselves off using their arm-stumps for leverage.
Clearly, the only way to compost a zombie is Bokashi. This way, you kill (sort of) two birds with one stone; 1. the zombies are contained (maybe a 55-gallon lidded barrel?) 2. Bokashi is well-known for killing off almost all pathogens--I'm assuming that includes the zombie virus-- and its ability to compost any biological material including meat.
However, I would follow Meg's advice and handle carefully or use only on ornamentals.
Probably the best practice is to test the finished compost for remaining pathogens. If any zombie virus is retained in the compost, it may not even be safe for ornamentals. You could very well end up with zom-bees.

I hear you! I put 4 inches of fresh compost in a slightly raised bed this spring and planted melons there. They did next to nothing. I put exactly the same compost in a 1/2 barrel to grow potatoes in, and 2 melons started spontaneously along with the potatoes. Melons are round-ish like zombie heads - and clearly they will do what they want and follow their own path, despite what any well-meaning gardener wants them to do.Rob Lineberger wrote:

I have melons sprouting in my compost right now! But when I try to grow them they fail! What's up with that??? Yes, I am yelling!
