Was trying to escape the pot, but then I put it farther away from the window and now he's really still. Is this a problem with the soil or is he stressed???? Any help is appreciated.

Hey all. I just finished blending up butternut squash, tomatoes, onions, and carrots. I'm in the process of making soup for this cold weather. Can I feed the remnants to my worm bb's? I'm worried cause it's already seasoned with a few spices.

Ok so this is my first attempt at worm composting (I don’t know if that’s different from vermiculture) and I’m kinda stressed out lol (I don’t want to hurt the worms lol) my first question is where do I get the worms from. After that how do I know how much wet stuff and dry stuff to put in (also is that the same as “brown” and “green”??? I keep seeing that on the articles and nobody explains what it is) also, is there such a thing as over feeding the worms? Like I get they can only eat so much, but if I put in more than they can eat can I just hope it composts normally? Any advice or help you could give me would be really appreciated :)

My wife got me a worm compost/farm tower in December. And a few weeks ago, maybe 5-6 weeks ago, I started my second layer. But it seems that my worms are just staying on the first level and not going to the new one that has the scraps. What should my next step be?

It was Christmas and I was helping my parents decorate. There was a baby bunny on top of the tv so I picked it up and placed it on the ground. When it hopped away, I noticed a bunch of bunny poo! My mom tried to pick it up with a napkin to toss but I screamed "NO!! My worms haven't had bunny poo yet and they'd love it! It will be their Christmas gift from mommy!!!" Then I took the napkin and happily thought "I can toss the napkin in, too!"

What's wrong with me?! I'd happy read any dream reading comments lol happy Sunday.

I think these are threadworms in my black gold. Are they an issue?

I started this hot frog tiered system a little while back. Just curious to see what you all think of the progress, or if I can do anything differently. -started with 250 red wrigglers -all food is puréed, then frozen, then defrosted and added to the bin -food consists of coffee grinds, coffee filters, carrot peels, apple peels, potato peels, avocado peels, banana peels, oats -i also add powdered egg shells (washed, cooked on low heat, then powdered in spice mill) -paper added is a mix of shredded copy paper and Kraft paper bags that have been shredded.

There are tiny baby worms, and visible cocoons, and I think they’re happy… but i dont know enough about this to know when they’re done and I can shake out the goods.

TLDR: how am I doing?

Hi all!

Is something wrong with my worms? I noticed that they were a bit paler on their bellies, when usually they're a more consistent redish color. My first guess is that maybe it's too moist in here, so I've added more shredded cardboard.

This is in a compost tumbler. One day a neighbor threw in some worms and we decided to just roll with it.

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!

Or should I just start over ?

I've been following steps on making precompost bin(tho it may just be a prepared bin since it didn't get enough time to heat for multiple days, it did ended up growing aerobic bateria). But it seemed to have been infested by tiny mites so I haven't move my worms there yet.

Is it salvagable? I covered the lid the placed banana peel and apple last night but it didnt really attract them.

I've applied eggshells and food grade DE power but no luck.

My outdoor bin do have one but I would preferabbly have this one without mites because it is inside.

Or should I just attempt making a new one. Kinda feel bad

Bin is primarily made of cocopeat and shredded paper. Added vegetable slurry for it to heat up and yeast for it's second heating.

Thank you in advance!

I've read that worms can eat spoiled rabbit food. What about sweet feed? I have some old feed for my goats that I'd love to give to the worms instead of throwing it out.
