Thank you Meme! Kinda like watching paint dry but I was curious about the concept of selling just cocoons. We just need to get you a sign saying “Filming, no overhead drone activity or planes or visiting! lol! You are the best! Thank you for sharing!

I wonder if your thermometers are holding the plastic up enough to let more air under it allowing the bedding to dry faster.

What a great idea. What do you think about adding shredded cardboard to speed up the rate of drying up? More surface area equals faster drying.
@MemesWorms

That would work if you are not trying to separate worms for sale as then you will have carboard that wont go through the sifter and have to clean that off worms.

I think that part of why this works is that it acts like a wick and brings the moisture up where it can evaporate. For my next batch of precompst, I plan to use an aquarium bubbler on a timer to inject air to the bottom of a garbage can. Basically a small scale static aerated compost system. I'm thinking the same principal but with increased airflow would also work for drying down castings.

Isn't it true that being immersed in the smell of a fresh, healthy earth environment/ecosystem makes a person prefer to do the work by themselves? I imagine there are times when you absolutely wouldn't have it any other way! In so many ways working your herd whilst maintaining your operation seems to be a real and personal sanctuary... let alone doing your part to keep us all a little healthier! Well done!

That’s impressive! How long should it take to get to 1 million worms? I’m starting my herd in breeder bins I set up yesterday. I have 6,000 new worms coming Friday and 6000 later next week? Should I start a nursery bin too for the cocoons and whisps? Seems like a lot to start with,but I think I can work on multiplying my worm count before I even think about buying a trommel.

I tried making wheat for the first time. I did it with compost and coco coir It turned out great, But one problem the worms never touched it. I left it in the bin for two weeks not a worm ate it. Removed it and fed them worm chow it was gone in a day. I watched several different video's, and I followed them to a tee

I am new to vermiculture... after you have your worm castings finished and sifted... do you have to wait a period of time before you can use them? If so how long? Do you use them straight or do you mix them with soil? Can they be used straight for seed starting?
@MemesWorms
@MemesWorms 6 күн бұрын
Welcome to the niche!! You can use them right away or wait a bit just don't let them dry out. Use no more than 20% castings at a time. You can top dress a few tbsp to a plant. When using for seed starter it's best to use 20% castings.

I love the way you show all facets of worm farming, particularly on the commercial side. Too many want to gloss over the work and make it look so simple to be a big commercial enterprise. It is WORK, though it is very worthwhile. We have come a long way since buying our trommel from you, though we have a long way to go. Much of our growth has to be because of what we have learned from you. Thanks for keeping it real. BTW, don't worry about the camera/sound levels. If I was watching for entertainment, maybe it would be off-putting, but since I'm watching to learn, it only shows it is real.

Coffee grounds are just one of many inputs worms love! Cardboard, veggie scraps, compost are all to name a few. Worms eat microbes. Microbes breakdown all the th8ngs I just mentioned so this is why they love them.

My worms only get pre compost, I was doing it the same way but have swapped over to using my 2 compost tumblers, I find it less backbreaking. I turn them about twice per day, I have the kind with double barrels and a turning handle, so it is not hard to turn. I stagger the filling of them so I have a constant supply on rotation.
