I used the Mayonnaise container only because I can get my hand inside it to clean it out & because of the dark lid. I guess I can just pull it out also and dump the material out on top of the soil… Hopefully this works out well and the food doesn’t rot uneaten by the worms.
If I had used pvc pipe, I’d possibly would have ended up using the wide mouth jar anyways.
1 hours after the lights went out, no worms to be found inside the feeding chamber ,(
I’ll give it a few days & if no worms then I’ll just pull the chamber out and dig a hole everytime I feed them. Like i did in the worm bin.
Honestly no idea. Lol I write the addy on the envelope & not the OG user name… If you sent me your addy in the last 5 days then I’d say yes.
Otherwise no.
Ok I can’t remember when, but I recall sending you my info and never got anything lol not sad just wondered if it got lost. I always make sure to let everyone know when something is received.
Do they need this? I can’t seem to keep mine alive. I thought worms easy right? I have bought two expensive bunches and not seeing more than one or two.
They don’t need it to survive I just like to get in the mix so it becomes plant available once they are done with it but that is more for directly in the pots with plants to top feed… that’s if you have worms in there obviously.
In the worm bin just like @Badger said moisture levels are really important also over feeding is a common mistake, I did it myself at first. If the food goes anaerobic before the worms can eat it that can kill them, so less is more. If you have lost some worms they would have laid eggs before they died so don’t discard your substrate or let it dry out too much, they will eventually hatch. I dumped my first attempt years ago out the back of my land to find months later it was full of worms and I now have 1000’s in 4 bins from that same lot that originally died.
