@@tdlin1721 I haven’t studied a lot about the earthworm. What I have observed that they are very amazing to survive in the bin. They come and go all by themselves. Sometimes they can be seen easily and sometimes they just hide in the deep soil. When the bin is wet, they could climb on the wall, and that is a reminder to me to add more brown things.

@@tdlin1721 usually the temperature in the bottom is low which means the compost is ready

Thank you for your replies. In addition to the hot decomposing by aerobic bacterials, earthworms can also contribute significantly for the decomposition by digestion. The following was the result from my CharGPT inquiry: In hot composing bins, there exists a temperature profile from about 50-75 F to 150 F at the top, Can earthworms still survive in the comfort zone of the profile? ChatGPT Yes, earthworms can survive in the cooler regions of a hot composting bin where temperatures fall within their comfort zone, typically between 55-77°F (13-25°C). Here’s a detailed explanation: Temperature Profile in Hot Composting Bins Gradient: In a hot composting bin, there is a temperature gradient, with the hottest temperatures (up to 150°F or 65°C) at the core of the pile, and cooler temperatures towards the outer layers and bottom. Comfort Zone: The outer edges and bottom of the pile can often stay within a range of 50-75°F (10-24°C), which falls within the comfort zone for many composting worms, such as red wigglers (Eisenia fetida). Earthworm Survival Microhabitats: Earthworms will naturally migrate to areas within the compost bin where the conditions are suitable for their survival, avoiding the hot core and seeking out the cooler peripheries where temperatures are more tolerable. Moisture and Oxygen: These areas not only offer a more suitable temperature but also often have adequate moisture and oxygen levels, which are crucial for earthworm survival and activity. Practical Considerations Bin Management: To facilitate earthworm survival in a hot composting bin, ensure that there are cooler, oxygen-rich areas available. This might involve managing the pile to maintain a gradient and avoiding over-insulation that can cause the entire bin to overheat. Earthworm Health: Regularly monitor the bin's temperature profile to ensure that the outer areas remain within the optimal range for the worms. If necessary, adjust the bin's composition or structure to maintain suitable conditions. Summary Earthworm Survival: Earthworms can survive and thrive in the cooler outer regions and bottom of a hot composting bin where temperatures remain within their comfort zone. Temperature Management: Proper management of the compost bin can ensure that these cooler microhabitats are maintained, allowing for the coexistence of hot composting processes and earthworm activity. By maintaining a suitable environment within the cooler parts of the compost bin, you can successfully integrate earthworms into your composting system even when employing hot composting techniques.

@@yunjiewang-kr4ml 去掉了

@@lyyai 去掉后怎么固定边？石子会散下去吧

@@yunjiewang-kr4ml 先用土填满旁边，再抽掉木条。散一点没关系，多加一点石子就好

欢迎回来分享试验结果！

是像，都属于茄科

侧枝多 也许结果多，但一串果子量少 也可能会小，这是我的观察；另外放任生长，植株确实比较凌乱失控，也容易滋生病虫害

完全可以，旅行中我都是远程控制做改变的

sorry我没有收种子，因为扦插实在是太容易了。但我理解有些朋友没有渠道得到枝条，我今年会收种子，如果成功会赠送，敬请关注后续

@@lyyai 谢谢你你的回复🙏没关系的，我买的两棵苗已经在路上了。

看来各地蚂蚁的喜好不同😂

要看你的养护方式，正常浇水施肥，过一段时间就会发新芽。不建议频繁分株，满盆后再分

现在只能掐头，也可以适当剪短，让它们重新从底部发侧枝

@@lyyai 谢谢🙏指教 😊

盆底应该有洞，就不会灌满水

水太多了肯定不好，无花果可长高到10米，但我们可控制高度，家庭种植建议不要高于3米，最好2米以内，好管理

@@lyyai What you said makes sense. Many other fruit trees in my country need to be covered with bags, otherwise they will be eaten by insects. Figs grow too high and it is really not easy to work.Thank you

很难。。。用超市用的水果硬塑料盒包起来试试

防小鸟比较难，可能需要包更多一些
