If you want to use it in your flower beds without odor you need to start a compost pile in a back corner of your yard.
Put down a layer of grass clippings, weeds and/or leaves. Next to your compost pile start a pile of all your yard waste(grass clippings, leaves, etc) When you add your vegetable pulp to the compost pile add a layer from your waste pile.
Let it sit for 9-12 months and you'll have compost you can add to your flower beds. You can turn the compost pile once in a while which speeds up the decomposition but you don't have to. The pile should be set in a place where it gets the sun. This method will not have a lot of odors. You can also add kitchen scraps too - NO meat, fat, bones as these will make it smell and attract animals. I don't put corn cobs in the pile either as they take too long to decompose.
