Q - What can I use in place of dry leaves if not available?
A - It's a very important question. I would suggest you to ask any mali or guard to collect dry leaves. They will surely manage. Alternatives can be dry grass, cocopeat or newspaper. But I am not suggesting alternatives because dry leaves are source of Nitrogen for compost. Go with dry leaves only.
