Explaining the Worm Bin in more detail

[jimmie200]

Thank you for showing how worm compost is supposed to look. I am starting my bin this week.

Hi

Can you tell me the the size of the holes in the trays?

[gardenvespers777]

I used more wormcastings ALOT this year with each transplant, with seedlings and in my compost tea and it sure made a big difference in my veggie garden!

I don't have a worm bin, I purchase the castings at the moment.

Maybe someday I'll try it.

Thanks ! Getting to see how the worm bin, the trays work, how the worms migrate from one tray to the other, having a good explanation of it all is a big Help ! Much appreciated and best wishes to you !

[aquariussal]

Wow... I raise my hat to ya for the work you do to make the compost 'crumbly'. Never thought of doing that to the compost we get from our little bin, but will try that. I can see how it would make it easier to spread the compost over a garden bed! :)

Thanks for showing the how after the fact ...8) ( we never see it..we see only nice black

fine compost ) Thanks again....8)

Can you let it dry out first then break it up with a hammer?

[tucsonpersonified]

Now he tells me not to lick my fingers!!

[jimmymetis]

nice farm, cool design, what is the music behind, i can barely hear it but seems wicked guitar and voice

[snakendahills]

very help full vid...I am conducting experiments with the worm doo...trying to find out just how much to add to my seed starting soil to give the seed that extra punch...any ideas? 50% is too much

[ututorial]

do you make money off of this?

[Like2MilkGoats]

my worms keep crawling out. They have food, its not to hot or cold, its not 2 wet or dry, they have 2 totally fresh beds with shredding brown paper, manure, oak leafs, and coffee grounds. What is wrong with my worms?

[Wisegeorge]

Like2, it may be too acidic. Add a couple of overripe bananas, they can't resist. They love melon rind too. I always have about 1% of my worms that I consider loners, they move to the empty top box and hang out by themselves. I don't know why they do it, but it doesn't bother me anymore. Just go with the flow and eventually you will know what to expect.

[Like2MilkGoats]

I made a new bed 50% peat 50% manure. I finely crushed egg shells so hopefully they will help control the ph. I have water melon rind in there now, they do love it. I also hear coffee grounds. Thanks for your reply!!!

[BloodXSweatXGuitars]

there gay

[marito001]

I think the manure is the problem.

[dmacosta1]

Thanks

George, for me yeah, for most people no. I'd rather be brewing beer but worms don't require as much attention to detail. Is it summer in Kansas yet? My potatoes in a trashcan went south, haha. I never report on my failures though. Oh well.

[mieses2pieces]

Brewing beer is easier than all of the work you put into worm farming.

Yes it's summer here. It hasn't gotten as hot here as it has there yet but it's going to be in the upper 90's this week. Wheat harvest should start any day.

NEVER report failures!! lol

[kevingok]

why not report failures? someone might be able to give you hints as to why it failed. or others can learn from your mistakes.

[getjustice]

do you sell the worms for fishing.Can you do this with crawlers?

[mieses2pieces]

Just wondering George. Is it really worth all of that trouble?
