Went around my yard and grabbed all the red wiggler so I could find. Started a tiny vermiculture a large old peanut butter jar a month ago. Probably only had around 20 worms to start but I already see a bunch of babies. Can't wait to move them to a larger container

Thanks for sharing this! I started my worm bin more than a week ago and already have some eggs. But to make sure I had to watch this video. Also some worms are bulging. But I am keeping them indoor for the winter.

Your videos are so informative Misilla, thank you! Complete novice here, and just had a couple of questions: How do you separate your worm cocoons from the castings? Is it visibly apparent when the cocoons have hatched, and what happens to the cocoons after hatching? Do you have to physically remove them, or will the worms ingest the old cocoons too? Thanks!

Hello, I'm sorry for my delayed response! The cocoons turns brown when the worms hatch. I'm not sure if the worms eat the cocoons, but I'm sure the break down along with the rest of decaying organic matter. I don't remove the cocoons when I harvest castings, it's not necessary.

Thank you for sharing! Now I know what those yellowish ball looking things are in my big flower/vegetable pots! I never added any worms to the soil. In fact, I do not remember seeing but maybe one or two worms if even that when I worked the soil to add my plants! I have had problems with caterpillars, Japanese beetles and other bugs when I initially tried growing vegetables - first year quite successfully, but each successive year was more bugs, less edible fruit and more sickly/damaged plants. I eventually converted the pots to just growing flowers because I thought that those ball things (I had so many in the soil) were related to my bug problem. Now I know differently! Thank you so much! Now I am more curious about the life cycle of worms! Thank you again!

Amazing!! One question: how do you use the end product? Do you mix it with the soil or you just leave it on top of the ground?

Hey I'm a PhD scholar and I need your help and guidance. Please tell whether cocoons have to be kept in soil substrate itself and they ll hatch in the soil or I may keep them moist in soaked cotton also under my regular observation and they ll easily and normally hatch in the latter case too? Or they have to be strictly incubated in artificial soil substratum

@LearnToGrow1

Hi there, The substrate I use in the worm bin is a combination of dry leaves, shredded paper and cardboard. The worms are fed on a weekly basis with vegetable and fruit waste, which contribute to the moisture content of the bedding. Ideal condition and temperature is 65 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit and moisture content of 80 to 90%. I think as long as the environment is favorable, they should eventually emerge. Hope this helps, thanks for watching! Misilla

Great video! I have found that the population of my red wigglers has dramatically decreased the past few months. I haven't fed them any dairy or meat, etc. Only egg shells, coffee grounds, lots of organic fruits and veggies, etc. I recently added some fresh peat moss so that they have new bedding. They seem to like it, but the population had dramatically decreased prior to adding the peat moss and changing their bin. What am I doing wrong? Please help! Thanks.

@LearnToGrow1

4 жыл бұрын

The peat moss is generally acidic and might be retaining too much moisture. If you add it to your bin, let it sit in water for 24 hours first and drain it. Add shredded cardboard or newspaper to absorb excess moisture every time you feed them and add some now. They like pulverized egg shells and can help reduce acidity of the peat moss. If you have time, you can redo the bedding and remove the peat. Hope this helps and your worms recover. Thanks for watching, Misilla
