Red Worm Farming tips:
•Keep farm in a dark place or all day shade if outside.
•Add bedding (shredded newspaper/cardboard) to eliminate smell, and soak up moisture and prevent mold and fungus.
•Keep worms moist 60%-80% (food scraps will usually provide enough moisture).
•Every few months, harvest the castings for plants and excess worms to start a new bin for yourself or a friend.
•Happy worms will churn through waste and be prolific breeders. Eggs sacs, juveniles, and mature adults will be present.
•Worms are hardy critters, but need to be protected from extreme temperatures and sunlight. 40F-80F
•Feed worms eggshells, cardboard, paper, fruit and vegetable scraps, coffee grounds, yard clippings, aged cow, chicken, rabbit, or horse manure.
•Avoid feeding worms dairy, meat, grease, dog or cat feces.
