Red worm farming tips
- Keep farm in a dark place or all day shade if outside.
- Add bedding (shredded newspaper/cardboard) to eliminate smell, to soak up moisture and prevent mold and fungus.
- Keep worms moist (food scraps will usually provide enough moisture). Simply mist water on bedding if it becomes dry.
- 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.
- Feed worms eggshells, cardboard, paper, fruit and vegetable scraps, coffee grounds, yard clippings, cow and horse manure.
- Do not feed worms dairy, meat, grease, dog or cat feces or bones.
