Harvest often but don't make the same mistake I made!! My compost worms love almost any food scrap you throw at them but if you don't feed this one food scrap in moderation, you could be in for a big smelly mess void of any worms!! Join me as we explore the ways compost worms turn food scraps & shredded cardboard into natural organic fertilizer for your garden in the form of worm castings!!
In this video I'll show you how I harvest my Outdoor Worm Bin every time I feed it and how I use a tray of my VermiHut to do it! We'll also dive into the last feeding zone where I find some surprising four odored leftovers! Let's just say I won't be disposing of these all at once in my worm bin every again!! We also find a pretty massive red wiggler & baby worm population as we are full force into the summer compost worm breeding explosion. I'm also very happy with the moisture levels & amount of castings we find despite the amount of thunderstorms and rain we've been getting. And yes I know I spelled Garbanzo wrong @A-V 😂 Let's see if you catch it!!
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. If you haven't started yet, get started now and vermicompost with me!🪱🪱🪱 Visit my Channel at [ Ссылка ]
