If a Cypress tree is felled and then fed through a wood chipper, can it be used straight away for composting, or should it be left in a heap for a time to leech out.

woody material can be composted, but would need a good bit of nitrogen, as it's mainly going to be 'brown' recycling material, and needs 'green' material to balance out.

Thanks, I'm aware for this but its the makeup of the cypress wood that I'm concerned about. I think its quite acidic, and would lower the p.h of my compost.
