Hm, that composting method sounds too good to be true, Ann. But surely no harm in trying it.
Pretty sure it takes a mix of green and brown materials, (as in grass clippings or weeds mixed with the dead leaves) plus air and moisture to make composting work. So you'd have to mow the leaves to mix them with the grass, put that in the bags, make sure it's evenly moist, then open the bags every week or two to aerate (decomp uses up the oxygen) and shake them up to make the composting process work.
I'm not sure what you'd get by leaving the leaves in a bag for the winter, but it won't be useable compost. Maybe mulch?
Hey Elfie, we cross posted! Did you see that Dave made us the FL Master Gardener badge? I got mine already, too. Your good idea bore fruit!
