Keep your worm bin at peak performance by managing these 4 things! And create natural organic fertilizer in the form of worm castings for you garden!
In this video I'll show you what I look for every time I feed or check on my worm bins. I believe if you can control these parameters/phases of your worm bin then you will be able to run it at peak performance in the form of more worm castings and huge compost worm population growth! We also check on the last feeding, add more different & unique bedding as well as give a big summer feeding as we look to maximize the production of this Urban Worm Bag!
Epigeic worms or composting worms are fascinating natural composters & fertilizers that are in most homesteaders bag of tricks to make free organic fertilizer & soil amendments as well as fishing bait. If you've ever thought about vermicomposting or composting with worms to make organic fertilizer & natural soil amendments with your plant based kitchen scraps or food waste, this is the channel for you. I have 3 worm composing bins which you can watch from start to finished worm castings on the 3 playlists following each worm bin.
