  1. @GinaT86 Yes. Enjoy the wormery experience. The worm compost will help the soil biology. We observe worms picnicking on the inside of the lid of their worm habitat. #vermicomposting, #compost

  2. I'm thinking about getting into #vermicomposting. Someone should talk me out of this idea

  3. ReSCHEDULED to rain date Sun - Earth day stuff at #SomervilleMA Growing Center thegrowingcenter.org/2025

  4. Does anyone has any experience with in the ground wormeries? #vermicomposting

  5. Ready to start #vermicomposting. Stacking trays arrived today. Arranged with a neighbor who has a worm farm running to get a starter supply of worms in the next day or two. Instructions recommend keeping a light on for first 2-3 days to keep the worms from exploring outside the tray. Will look at initial start in garage before finding a more permanent location outside.

  6. #vermicompost question; my worms seem to be surviving but just not really eating much? Is it possible I started them off with too much existing soil and they're cool with that?
    Also I know I only recently got their moisture back up as things got drier with the weather change. I wanna get them to a point where they're thriving! #vermicomposting #wormbin

  7. Turning over my worm bin. I started this bin while emptying out my father's house, and most of its carbon/bedding input is his shredded junk mail -- all the many threats and scams targeted at the elderly, the pleas for more money from charities he couldn't afford to support, and the darker babble about how the evil leftists are coming to steal your children. It still comes, most days, only now forwarded to me. Then it gets mixed with kitchen scraps and the worms eat it, so it can do some good in the world eventually.

  8. Ever since I tried #vermicomposting I've wanted to try to pot a plant and keep the worms fed and living inside the pot.
    This year I will try it using bottles buried in the dirt to feed the worms and hopefully keep out other critters (like fruit flies).
    I hope it works out. #gardening

  9. On the fourth day of #Christmas, my true love gave to me … a bucket of red wriggler #worms to feed the four calling birds in the yard (in the original song, they were likely colly birds, a reference to European blackbirds).

    As I describe in Chapter 12 of Flush, red wrigglers also feature prominently in #vermicomposting, one way in which many composting #toilets are able to convert our organic deposits into a rich soil amendment over time!

  10. Any #vermicomposting types in these parts? I mixed a fresh batch of mulch today for my #UrbanWormBag. Astounded by how much waste it diverts into rich and highly concentrated compost.

    Mulch ingredients: shredded cardboard, paper bags and egg cartons, ground eggshells, thrice-filtered coffee grounds (to remove the acidity), dried leaves from the hops I grew this year, water.

    Add two parts mulch to one part vegetable waste to the worm bag (not pictured) every three days.

  11. To help make connections: name 5-7 things that interest you but aren't in your profile, as tags so they are searchable. Then boost this post and repeat its instructions so others know to do the same.
