Guest guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Oh the funny thing is that this is my husband's idea! I had mentioned composting a few times to him in the past, but he never really seemed interested. The Worm Factory people were at the Philly Flower Show and I was wanting to see their products, so he was a lot more interested then I expected. Then he kept going back to the Rainwater collection display. That really surprised me. All of a sudden, we are getting worms, looking into rainwater collection systems, and discussing setting up a compost pile in the yard!He even went to the local Agway where we buy alot of yard and bird supplies and asked the owner to go over options with him.I was floored and figured I would do my part with some research.I LOVE the idea of putting my wheatgrass mats in the compost! What a great idea :)thanks!marion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 Thanks Lee for the info. This is great hearing about other folks' experiences > I've had a " worm farm " going in my basement for the past 3 years. I use the 'wormtopia' stackable tray system. I use the 'soil' that is produced to sprout/grow my wheatgrass, and the wheatgrass root mats go back into the worm farm. Inbetween wheatgrass mats, the worms get all my kitchen veggie scraps. It is a wonderful system. I also use the worm castings in my garden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the worms don't much enjoy citrus, jalapenos or onions (we don't take them out for Tex-Mex very much). At peak activity, the worms may be able to process up to half their weight daily, in semi-rotted veg/fruit scraps. So 2# worms = not more than 1# scraps/day.

Guest guest Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Yes, They need to be kept in a shady spot if you have them out doors. A little morning sun is ok, but not midday or afternoon. Not too moist. Some worm bin instructions tell you to add a little water when you feed. Do not do that unless you're feed dry leaves or dry newspaper. The household scraps have plenty of moisture in them. If you get them to wet, they will try to escape and might succeed. If you find worms climbing up the sides of you bin and gathering at the top, you have one of two problems. Too wet, or the food has gone sour. Feed them enough, but don't over feed. Add lots of scrap newspaper. Its both a bedding and a food source. I have this real cute cartoon that shows a daddy worm, a momma worm and a baby worm. Dad is sitting in a chair with his newspaper and baby is trying to ask a question. Mom says, " I told you not to bother your dad while he is eating his paper " . ew Re: Re: OT: worm composting & rainwater Bonnie,Thanks for the info. We are still considering options.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2011 Report Share Posted March 15, 2011 Bonnie, I had heard that worm composting is very popular in Manhattan as well. I am not surprised that Brooklyn is big on it. I heard Leonard Lopate (a public radio talk show host I enjoy listening to) talking about how folks in NYC keep worm bins under their sinks.We won't be having ours under the sink but most likely in the mud room.I used to laugh at the idea of a " mud room " but now living on a muddy property I am so glad I have one! marionps, if anyone is interested, Leonard Lopate's shows are available as podcasts. He is a great interviewer (reminiscent of Terry Gross of Fresh Air but more assertive) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
