Worm composting is just another process which needs to be mastered by aspiring advocates.
As part of the process, we will introduce you to this world by sharing what we have to make a better place and for you to make a better and healthy living.
The Important Ingredients of Worm Composting You can never complete a process without the ingredients.
This is also true with worm composting.
For you to be able to start, you have to have composting worms.
How do we get those? First, do not go outside your house to pick ordinary earthworms.
They are never recommended.
If you have to buy red worms, then do.
This type of worm is perfectly fine for the process.
Also known as Eisenia fetida, research has already proven how good it can be for composting processes.
What's next? Think on where your worms will live.
We then now go to worm bin and for this to become a one real home for the red wiggler worms, add beddings.
You'll know more as you read.
Managing the Bedding Shredded papers and cardboard will be good materials to serve as bedding for the composting worms.
Leaves that are yet to be decomposed will also do.
You cannot afford to transfer the red worms in the bin without these because you might find yourself a loser in the end.
So if you want to be successful, don't forget to keep the bedding moist and also, to maintain different kinds of bedding as much as possible.
You can make your composting worms happy by doing this.
Allowing enough air by not putting too much bedding will also make their productivity faster.
Finding Nutritious Food for Worm Composting Foods are important.
If human beings need food to survive, worms also need it in order to grow.
Don't worry; red worms are not that selective in terms of food.
In fact, even with kitchen scraps, they are already satisfied.
Just don't forget the good and bad foods for them.
Let's start with the bad.
It is never advisable to feed red worms with dairy products, meat bones and foods that have imprints of pesticides.
When you give them these foods, say goodbye to your worms.
Meanwhile, remember these foods that are vital in their growth and reproduction.
Take time to cut food scraps like your fruit peelings and vegetables.
Grass cuttings and tea bags should not be considered useless; you can also give those to your red wiggler worms.
Vermicomposting will be easier and faster if these instructions are followed.
Also, do not give more than what the worms need.
Too much food can lead to their death.
Just base the amount of food you are to give them with this study: red worms would normally eat an amount that is equal to their body mass.
Worm Composting matched with right temperature If you are to be situated in a place that is not properly ventilated, will you even be productive? Worms also work this way.
It is important that they are located in the most convenient place.
We can never just put them anywhere or else, we will just be wasting our time.
Maintain a temperature of 40-90 degrees for the worms.
Hide them from too much heat and spare them from heavy rain.
You may do it indoor or outdoor, just make sure you know what to do.
For your convenience, you may also bring them in your kitchen or in your basement.
As simple as that.
Worm bin, food, temperature and bedding when put together can make you successful.
Have a good start and love the venture of worm composting! It isn't every day that you encounter people who would be willing enough to introduce you to worm composting.
In fact, one may just take ownership to his knowledge regarding the topic but since everyone wants to be green, then we're now part of the advocacy.
