Food and Medicine for your Worms 2024

In this video I discuss how to use cardboard to multiply mushroom mycelium to feed your worms. We have so much cardboard around and finding ways to recycle it and turn it into high protein worm food is a good permaculture solution to cardboard boxes. Worms eat microorganism including fungi. However, most worm bins are bacteria dominated environments, so this is a great way to enrich your worm's diet and recycling cardboard at the same time.

    Thanks for the video! Makes sense to feed the worms with fungi like wine caps mushrooms

    Can you use any commercial mushrooms? Or are there specific types that will work better for worms?

    I use king stropharia because it grows easily in garden beds and it helps plants grow. Most other mushrooms require more complex set ups away from sunlight.

    Once you see the cardboard is covered in white mycelium you can start adding to the bin as a top layer or mix it with the best of the bedding. The worms will do the rest. I might not be answering your question, so please let me know if you have specific concerns.
