How to tell if you're
How to tell if you're overfeeding your worm bin & why this can lead to disaster for your worms! Overfeeding a worm bin is the #1 mistake beginners make when starting out. No matter how many worms you start with, heed this advice so you can reap the benefits of turning your food scraps into natural organic fertilizer in the form of worm castings for your garden!
This outdoor worm bin is 2 1/2 years old & has approximately 4000 worms. In this video we increase the volume dramatically & give them a huge feeding...Which can be done if you know your bin and it's limitations. Find out how I do it, while I dig around the last feeding zone, pull out some black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) and release worms from my latest worm casting harvest in a compost worm time lapse!
Epigeic worms or composting worms are fascinating natural composters & fertilizers that are in most homesteaders bag of tricks to make free organic fertilizer & soil amendments as well as fishing bait. If you've ever thought about vermicomposting or composting with worms to make organic fertilizer & natural soil amendments with your plant based kitchen scraps or food waste, this is the channel for you. I have 3 worm composing bins which you can watch from start to finished worm castings on the 3 playlists following each worm bin. If you haven't started yet, get started now and vermicompost with me!🪱🪱🪱 Visit my Channel at vermicompostlearnbydoing
