If it is fungal/bacterial it will only spread it about to other plants.

But I suppose it can be spread out as a mulch in the garden I would think as the cold of the winter should kill the spores.

The spores allow it to overwinter in sub zero temps, in the soil, that's why infections like blackspot etc is a recurring problem if leaves aren't raked up and removed.

I should have realized that before thinking of doing that! So what can I do with 3 growbags of compost that I can't use for further potting next year on the balcony & I can't spread out as a mulch???

No brown in the interior of the stems, seaburn.

It would be ok in that as it gets hot enough to destroy the spores. good re lack of obvious damage on the stems.

No. I'm afraid not - not much use for them in a block of flats! Even if I had one I've nowhere to put it! I certainly wouldn't want it taking up valuable "Real Estate" on our balcony!
