Fascinating time lapse of 10,000 red wigglers turning a huge pumpkin into natural organic fertilizer in the form of worm castings for my garden! It started by unleashing its liquid, then turned into a moldy, mite filled mess & ended with the worms devouring it in record time!! You won't want to miss the mass of worms we pull out when we dig into this Urban Worm Bag!
We also check on what is left of the Floofah, run into a few worm balls, give it another big feeding of frozen food scraps & add more damp shredded cardboard to keep this worm bin going! You can check out the Floofah sponge at www.floofah.com
Epigeic worms or composting worms are fascinating natural composters & fertilizers that are in most homesteaders bag of tricks to make free organic fertilizer & soil amendments as well as fishing bait.
