Thanks for this video. I have a question though. For the dirt can I use the miracle-gro potting mix? thanks

[djrramsey]

@RebelThunder Miracle gro will work very nicely. I have used it for grindal worms, white worms and earthworms. I sometimes pick out the fertilizer BB sized piece, but I don't make any effort to get them. David

What if I don't have an existing culture?

[djrramsey]

@Asianleful You have to get a starter culture from someone else. Try local fish clubs or someone that keeps a lot of killifish. If there is an importer/exporter near you they may be able to get you a beginning culture.

hi could i use houmous ground for whiteworms?

which is the best ground?

[djrramsey]

@gyaros You want particle size from 1/16" to 1/2" like would be in a good potting soil. Do not want dust size particles, the worms need to be able to move around in the mix. Humus type compost should work fine.
