Re: how best to use the compost
Hiya vermicompost (the compost from the wormery) can be mixed with your seed compost to give your seedlings a really good start. the vermicompost holds lots of air and is charged with esential nutrients. you can either mix it with the compost - or sprinkle it at the bottom of the trench, also add it...

Re: Bokashi Bran in a wormery
Hi your wormery was dispatched today - but might not be with you until monday - our couriers have been having problems with all the snow !! Bokashi won't harm the worms at all, in fact they really like it, we feed our worms on our bokashi waste. however make sure that you don't add too much, as we h...

Re: worms - dog poo
Hi yes you can use your existing boxes / wormery. You can use a wormery for dog poo, the worms love it, however we do suggest that, the compost produced is only used in parts of the garden where children do not play, and that the compost isnt used on any vegetables (ie enter the food chain). Also ma...

Re: bedding
Hi You only need a small trowel full of soil at the beginning - this is simply to innoculate the wormery, and get some good bacteria and creatures into the mixture, to make your worms feel at home. Your worms will eat all the coir block bedding - it is there for initial bedding only - when you start...

Re: Feeding a wormery from a bokashi bin
Hi Perdita Any of the wormeries we sell would be fine for adding bokashi to (except the childrens one) We put a bucket of fully fermented bokashi'd waste into one of our worm beds and the worms swarmed all over it, 15 litres of waste was consumed within 6 days - all thats left is the brown onion ski...

Re: Does the Executive value pack come complete?
Hi Forest ! Other products are sold with optional rain covers, moisture mats, lime mix and worm food. 1) Rain covers arent needed as there aren't any holes in the lid of our wormeries 2) Moisture mats arent needed, they are just a piece of hemp that is placed on the surface of the wormery - which th...

Re: How many worms
Hi Sara Thank you for your question we send all our wormeries out with a minimum of 500g of mixed composting worms (apart from the childrens wormery which has 250g) This is the minimum amout that we feel you should start a wormery with. Too few worms will take ages to multiply 500g of worms = approx...

Re: to chop or not to chop?
Hi Helen Welcome to the Forum, We are really glad your 2 wormeries are so successful To answer your question... It is beneficial to chop the food up first, as this makes it compost down quicker. This is because the surface area is greatly increased, and the bacteria and microbes can work on it bette...
