WELCOME TO A BRAND NEW SERIES
I am really trying to shift my focus a little bit to provide more educational examples of how to do certain things with harvesting your worms, feeding methods and addressing common worm composting questions.
THE HORIZONTAL MIGRATION METHOD
I have tried the horizontal migration method before but frequently I get impatient and give up before I give it a true "start to finish" try. Lilia Kogan does a fantastic job with the horizontal migration and inspired me to see it through. It very well may be the best way to harvest nearly worm-free castings.
Today I pulled out my "secret" red wiggler bin that is fully established and ready for harvest. When you get to this point in your worm bin, people often are uncertain of how to get the castings without having to pick out worms. This method is a great way to go about it. Make sure you are ready to commit a little extra time to harvest but it sure does pay off.
COCOONS FOR SALE
Most of you know that I am selling cocoons now as a side business but I am still getting off the ground and my money is tight after making such an investment in an opportunity to have a side income doing what I love. Now through June 1st, all cocoons are $10 off per order. Take advantage if you are interested in trying. I have red wiggler cocoons, African Night Crawler cocoons and European Night Crawler cocoons available. I need orders by Wednesday mornings so that I can mail your cocoons and get them to you in a timely fashion.

MY DRY MIX
I use a dry mix of Diatomaceous Earth, Neem Cake, Kelp Meal and Oyster Shell. This combination is a great way to provide not only a grit source for the worms to properly digest their food, but also to provide a pH buffer to keep a healthy bin while also giving a pest control ingredient (Neem cake) that will make the process of handling worm bin pests just a little easier.
Dry Mix Ingredients:
1. Neem cake: amzn.to/2QtPALv (excellent for bug control)
2. Diatomaceous Earth: amzn.to/2EaFFVd (grit source and trace minerals- can also be good for bug control if kept dry)
3. Kelp meal: amzn.to/2EaviAQ (trace minerals)
4. Oyster Shell: amzn.to/2PgFybM (grit and pH buffer)
Coconut Coir: amzn.to/2IhjNtr
Let me know what you think. Have you tried a horizontal migration before? What is YOUR favorite harvest method?
I hope you all have an excellent weekend! Until next time...
Happy Worming,
