That's a good trick. I have a trick also. Here's mine: I built a tray with a clear plastic bottom. When it's time to harvest, I hang a very bright light over the top of the tray and dig down the top tray until I start seeing worms. At such time, I turn off the light and cover the top of the bin with an opaque piece of plastic, then I set the bin on a structure, which holds yet another bright light and switch it on. That light comes up from the bottom and guess where the worms go? Yep, right to the top of the bin where there's no light. At that juncture, I remove the opaque cover and scoop The Little rascals up. Easy peasy.

Do you mean bedding? I use all kinds of things my favorite is peat moss.

You just changed the way I'm gonna separate my Tiny Worm Bin worms to count them!! Thanks for the awesome tip/trick!!🪱🪱🪱

I drive mine down through a 1/2 inch screen into sifted castings and then sift those through 1/4 inch screen to get castings off. Very quick.

Way to go Vee! Good idea! I love to pick worms. It's addicting!

Sadly ANC cocoons don't look anywhere like that. What you have is a fruit fly pupae.

Great hack. Thanks for sharing. 😎

Great trick! The worms look healthy. Thanks.

Thank you for sharing this tip. I have now been doing this instead of my normal way. I now save time to do other this. Thank you again Pete.

Look at those beasts!! Great tip.

Actually..little known facts: It was my breakthrough 1978-81 recognized worldwide that forced us to invent Vermicomposting...1981. Later that year Buckminster Fuller endorsed my breakthrough & they were historymaking events. So...to let all of you correct your thinking...their is no 'worm poo' and 'worm juice' means you need improvement. Earthworms uniquely fully encapsulate their exudate so that the rich nutrients are stabilized, without further 'composting', unlike compost & manures. So they are truly fully stabilized, nutrient capsules. Thought you might like to know. Any residue might come from raw materials still in process.

Thanks worm lady for the harvesting tip. Looks easy. But I can't resist counting them.😁

Thanx very interesting

Hi Vee, Always learning 👍

I love your setup ! 👍👏👏👏👏 everything looks amazing. You’ve done the shelving and bins so nicely. Looks like a really comfy space where I could spend hours 😀. Thanks for all the info you share 🙏 I’m only just starting out with a worm bucket and trying to learn as much as I can. You have a great relaxed voice and tone which makes for easy listening 👍👍 keep up the great work.

Thank you so much I really appreciate that. Take your time and learn before you invest big time. When I started out, I started with One, Worm, Factory, and the obsession grew from there. 😅🪱

@@TheGardenAndWormLady yes indeed, that is my plan 👍. I have very few worms , 50 if that ? 😆 but, I’m looking forward to putting the knowledge I’m getting here to work to grow the colony. It’s probably going to be many months, but that’s ok, more time to get an understanding of it all .

love it

Nice worm harvesting hack. I always like when people can discuss plans or ideas that work well. 😁👍

You are amazing Vee. ❤️ Thanks for the tip. I love each and every video of yours. You talk about worms like I do 🥰 and you are just so natural and likable. You make us all better worm parents ;). 😊Greetings from Canada 🇨🇦

Why is it that my worms thrash around like crazy when disturbed and yours don't? TBH it kinda freaked me out! Like a jumping corkscrew move...

I think it’s because they love their mama😂 Honestly different species behave different. Have you ever seen a blue worm? They are on high battery voltage. Can you get the red wiggler that’s very chill.

Is that metal shelving...wish I can find Trays like that..ty
