My name is Vee and i'm a professional worm farmer. I've been one for 21 years. After raising 4 kids who have grown to become amazing adults I finally have more time to dedicate to my channel. I've been raising worms since 2002. If interested, subscribe, like, and share. Don't forget the bell notification so you don't miss any of my videos :) #worm composting.

What happened to Patchamama?
I believe he moved them outside and lost them all
@@TheGardenAndWormLady did he quit?
Thank you for sharing that you use pine. I am allergic to pine and you saved me a hospital trip!
Don’t forget to also wear a mask! The plumes of oyster shell and pine aren’t good for the lungs.
Big one is for cracked corn for chickens
I would like to buy that, but I's never take myself to. But that's what I would do! I'm too involved with something, I don't know what it is. But it's what I do. It beats hauling veg scraps back from the grocery store you work at. Plus, most Grocery stores are so locked up in regard to this. Not mine. but that's vegetable scraps. You'll shoot your eye out kid. LOL I I Just wish the best for the American people!
i hope you at least send this to who ever you bought them from I know if I was that owner you would be getting another shipment of 2 lbs of them just cause you didn't call out the company for possibly a simple mistake could be a new employee or just a mistake don't know but that's what id do
I got a new shipment in, video to come
Qué gusto escucharla hablar español. Me encanta su canal. Saludos desde México!
Gracias ❤️
What kind of bedding do you use for the worms? I purchase mealworms from a from a breeder for my bearded dragon.
@@landhermitcrabeducenter I use two different types, depending on what I could find and the price. I use Peat Moss but it can be a little acidic so you have to add dolomite lime. My favorite bedding to use is coconut coir, it comes in bricks. It’s neutral no need for dolomite lime. Most commercial warm farmers use Peat moss but I also use shredded cardboard, shredded newspaper leaves, they absolutely love leaves and the blackest castings I’ve ever gotten was when I feed leaves. I’ve never raised mealworms.
@@TheGardenAndWormLady this is great info thank you!
@@landhermitcrabeducenter you’re welcome ☺️
Yeah I see em push all kinds of stuff up to the surface that they cant eat, seeds and small pieces of wood sometimes for me
Hello Vee. The anaerobic environment produces acidic pH and toxic gases. The toxic gases might be the first one to affect the worms first. So that super sticky smell you felt, well those worms (with less mass than you) face it right at the source. So to vent out the toxic gases, one have to serious aerate the bin. This means that you have to remove both layers of coverings that you put on the worm bin, and I think that plastic cover particularly blocks a lot of air flowing in/out. Removing both covers would be helpful for future anaerobic challenges. As well, with both covers remove, much more oxygen would flow through, which seriously slows down the anaerobic process producing the toxic gases. I like that you added new material to dilute the anaerobic materials and create more space for air to potentially go in/out. Also, can you tell me about your sweet water video speeding up feeding, if you have one?
Not sure which video that is😁
Great way to rehydrate the worms 🇳🇿🪱
But seeds don’t need soil to sprout. Just water would do that. Now if it grew that melon, now we’re talking. Great melon
They don’t need soil to sprout, but the castings that the worms produce just make it sprout
Cows eat grass too! It's the same thing. We're just Save America. Thanks Indiana.
🤗
Not my experience at all. I have the same tower. Someone turned the lights off in the room I keep them in, and that was the only time the worms escaped. I always feed onions and all kinds of citrus. Both always gone within a week
I’ve had the lights turned off and I’ve lost power because of the weather usually they stay put unless they’re African nightcrawler. I have fed onion and citrus, but only once in a blue moon.
So fascinating how that works lol I love to see it 😂
🤣
Hey, Well enjoyed🙌! I'm not really sure if it is the best time to ask but, I was wondering if I could help you create a better distribution by working on post-production like better storytelling through Edits, Keywords, think catchy intros and outros, or even some engaging short clips! Would love to chat if you're interested and keep creating good content:)
Nice setting !! love watching your videos from Montreal, Canada !! Yep!!
Joe's a real gem!
He is ☺️
Spoiling your worm babies again 😅
I thought alfalfa and another component causes heat and toxins to worm bin? On another video I watched. So much information online I came across and opposite information too?
I feed alfalfa, but I mix it into my chow and I feed it on the surface. Never had a problem.
It's also good for soil microbes in soil too.
Loved your giggles, Vee! I hope you filmed the bloopers...🤣🤣 ~ Sandra
🤣
I had to do a search online to find out what a Wyze camera is. I watched a guy do an unboxing of something called the "V3" and he prepared a short demo of the view of the skyline & clouds from his balcony. He also set it up to activate at sunrise to shoot that as well. Seems like a fairly basic but useable device.The straight out of camera footage had to be converted to be compatible with his video editing software - and he left on the 'Wyze' logo imprint, the time/date stamp & a box that appears when it senses a human face. He said these things can all be turned off. If you provided some more details about which model camera you have, what worked well... what didn't.... etc. - and perhaps see if you can post the finished product of your 30 day attempt so it can be checked out.... then there'd be a great deal more to evaluate as far as what the good, the bad & the ugly were Glad to provide input - but I need more info :)
I have two of these cameras. I love them. They’re easy to use and I do use the Time-lapse feature for my crabs, but this was a little more challenging. I have the model V3, which is a pan and I have a V4 tomorrow when I go to my Wery, I will do a video, showing it
Cool - I look forward to it 👍🏻
That's just what's so charming about you Indiana. And I'm not flirting. You bees yourself at all times!! yeah, makes me proud actually.
🤣 well thank you!!!!!! 😊
some how you think, the time lapse is where the Money Penny is. You're regular videos, are just fine. But if you have a Fire in your belly Mrs. McGill for Time lapse Go for it! Yeah, it looks like you're at a Surgery center with that Watermelon! Thanks Indiana.
🤣 i’m just so intrigued and when something is a huge challenge for me, I don’t give up. I watch a lot of Time-lapse videos of all kinds animals food even the clouds. I just love it.🤣
@@TheGardenAndWormLady I throw up (ha through up) YT videos. I end up fighting the computer and YT more than anything! My GrandMa Perendy (YUOGOSLAV), her answer was 'pull the plug'. And I've said before by the time you get busy working, making a video on TY, oops YT, is last thing on your mind! Good luck Indiana! Probably better at it than me, for sure!
Girlie I so love your videos and your excitement about your wormies. I just got into vermicomposting and my box is just over a month old and I am hoping they are going to migrate to their new box soon where a watermelon awaits for them. Lots of baby worms and eggs. It's super exciting
I should get over my fear of touching my wormies.
Hi, is this applicable to black soldier fly?
Not sure 🤔
Worm bins offer the perfect conditions for germination of many plants. I purposely put chilli seeds in my miniature bin (1 quart), most germinated after just a few days. 😅
Grew up fishing & camping in Jersey 👍🏻 Nice!!! :)
@@A-V we would go camping in Newton, New Jersey. Plus I spend my teenage years on the Jersey shore, living the life of a beach bum.🤣
The expression "down the shore" makes sense to anyone who has lived in New jersey - but to anyone else it must sound odd :)
I love it love it lol
It is so cool! I had the same. In case you want to try it, I threw Avocado pits in there with the skins etc and two sprouted in my worm bin. I thought the first was a stick and I pulled on it and ruined it but the second one is now a 2' tall avocado tree a year later. I love it so much!
That was a reading experience and interesting! I love how you call him Pappa (Daddy)! You describe it so well in your native language! I haven't figured out the Translate to English on You Tube comments, I quit actually! LOL. Thanks Indiana!
@@ClickinChicken yes I’ve called him that my whole life. He is an incredible father and I had an amazing childhood. My parents were married 55 years. I was very privileged child. But a very spoiled one bratty.🤣
Wheres English?
You gotta press the auto translation
@@TheGardenAndWormLady And where would that be?
@katiem9644 when you look at the video, you press up and there’s a lot of options. It looks like a little gear at the end of the options. I just posted a picture on the community tab showing you where.
@@TheGardenAndWormLady I guess Im stupid. I dont see any options, and I have no clue what that picture is on the community tab.
@@katiem9644 when you click on the picture, I drew an arrow
I am glad that you are letting your father know about your worming setup! Because I'm going into spanish 2 in a few months, these types of videos will be a great help with learning different spanish vocabulary. ¡Gracias!
Hey Indiana! The subtitles are also in Española! IT's cool your Dad is watching!!
He is and loves it 🤣
@@TheGardenAndWormLady You missed my point. In video you speak in Spanish, but the captions are also in Spanish. So I left.
@@ClickinChicken I just checked a little gear and when you press auto translation, you can pick English! It was challenging editing this one because first speaking English and then I go to Spanish. It’s almost like KZread didn’t know what to do.🤣
@@TheGardenAndWormLady OK rewind. Yep I see it! Thanks!
@@ClickinChicken you’re welcome. I’m glad that it has translation. I watched videos from all over the world also in different languages.
Hi guys!!! Thank you for watching!! I appreciate you all!! Please press the subscribe button, like and share with family and friends. :)
Yes I have red wigglers
Yes! I love those little guys. ENC are my second favorite. 😊
how can you describe the sound
Thanks for this video. Hate to see it. The smell is the best indicator that the issue was overfeeding/ not enough bedding. The worms don't absorb much of the nutrients on each pass so overfeeding can sneak up on you. Especially if you aren't using finished material as a base bedding.
I love this!! I'm actually just setting up my first crabitat so this is amazing timing 😀 Where did you get those baths?
This is where I got the bubbler pools. Hermit crabs are fun, but they are not an inexpensive pet That’s for sure.Tell her I sent you 😄www.etsy.com/shop/TheLuckyCrabCo
@@TheGardenAndWormLady No they're not! My neighbors must think I'm a shopaholic because I've had boxes coming everyday for a couple weeks as I set this up lol. But you gotta do it right! Just got some of your food ;-) I've been doing PPS acclimation so this will be great to help with that and increase their varied diet. Thank you!!
Awesome!!!!! 🤩 it’s nice to have another Crabby friend on here😂🦀
100 words holy god
Hi all, Thank you for watching my crabby babies! This is my first year showing them off, until then I kept them private.:) The one that is more round his name is Radu, he's an Ecuadorian hermit crab and crazy as ever!!! Share with family and friends. I appreciate you all!!!! For hermit crab food visit my Etsy shop feedyourcrabs.etsy.com
Congrats on moving to full time!!!
Joe is awesome!!!!so supportive 😊
Great I always like to see the outdoor bins cos I feel they do more better than the I door bins. The worms are chubby and bigger in size compared to indoor bins.
Dang hopefully my new nightcrawlers compost bin worms doesn't die off like that. I been composting yardwaste composter pile with worms to help break down material for flower and veggies garden beds but want to start harvesting wormcasting to amenities to potting soil or have ready for not easily attained or pricy in my area. Just a better way to do brown n green kitchen waste instead of losing all worms outside except alot in the garden beds and they make good Aerators. Besides saving them from little container and fisherman & ladies 😂
