courgette plants

Hi, my courgettes have had powdery mildew for a month or so but have continued to produce good fruits so all I have done is removed the worst leaves and let it be. However now they are coming to their end, can I put the plants/compost (they were grown in containers) into my compost heap or does it need to be thrown, like Toms with blight? Can anyone advise please? Thanks :cnfs:

 

Hi Andy

Thanks for the reply I will bin the lot (still producing some fruit so I'll hang fire a bit though)
Thanks again
