Some I’m scared to put soil or anything in Compost like Aloe Vera.

Some plants look good but they are very prolific.

Depends a bit how you compost them. In an open heap there are some things that will not only survive, but grow prolifically, as you say. I put them in one of my black plastic bins in full sun, nothing survives total darkness and heat for long, and a black bin in sun gets pretty hot.

I think I have a Bin somewhere. I considered it too small but this would beat pitching it all.

On most my stuff I cold compost taking advantage of worms, their Castings and all.

Really seems to Compost pretty fast.

Thank you for helping me think.

What are you trying to get rid of? Would neighbors want any? Sometimes we just need to make room and that means ripping out plants. Guilt? Maybe. Compost? Sure. In the end, it's your garden-do what you need to do. I used to think it would be fun to have a blog called "The Ruthless Gardener" because so much of our chores involve discarding unwanted/underperforming/sad plants.

Well that is one problem they preform.

My neighbors don’t want them because we don’t get along the best.
