Worm farmin’ update

The worm farmin’ went well, I took all my worms and that great dirt and put it in the corner of my back yard garden I still compost there and it is working pretty good.  I think when it gets closer to winter I’ll bring the worms back inside or maybe get some more.  But I think I’ll but a professional worm bin this year cause I couldn’t seam to get the air flow right in my home made one, but I would still rate the project as a success.

Worm Farmin’ update

Well yesterday the worms came in the mail, I thought 2000 worms would of came in a bigger box but we’ll see how it goes. Made the container, put the worms in and gave them a little bread to get them started so we’ll se how it goes. If what I’ve read is true my four pounds of worms should be able to eat there weight in kitchen scraps every day, and reproduce about once a month, to we’ll see.

Worm Farmin’

A couple months ago I tried my luck at making a worm bin for kitchen scrap compost, I didn’t do very well, admittedly I didn’t follow the instructions very well and instead of using red wigglers like everyone recommends I just used some night crawlers I got a Wal-mart.  But don’t worry I’m trying again, I just ordered some red wigglers from Uncle Jim and am going to start over when they get here, I’ll follow the instructions this time.  Here is a Cheap and Easy worm bin plan.
