I would have thought the opposite. Being left to just sit around for
five years should give the fungi plenty of time to grow and get to
work on the tough old bits.
If the compost was adequately cared for, kept moist and turned once in a wh=
ile, there may be fungal growth. Moisture is key. If it was just left to s=
it and moisture was low, probably low fungi. Like I said, I really can't t=
ell without looking but would assume low fungi given the information provid=
ed by Jack.
