Compost vs worm castings

[FredH]

Not really … vermicompost is high in nutrition ( humus )- worms pretty much did the work already . Available to plant quickly.

And the bacteria in worm casting breaks down what isn't already available to the plants into nutrients available to them. A quick way to make the nutrients in bone meal available is to bubble worm casting and bone meal in a tea till the bone meal tea turns into a milky looking creamer.

They really don't jump , they are just a lively , frenetic bunch of trouble makers !

They undulate like their on cheap speed , a very rowdy bunch of invertebrate. Hope that cheers ya up !

Add some peatmoss to lighten it up.

Im guessing all worms do. They eat they shit that’s a casting

Does that make me a casting producer? I eat, I shit, therefore...

Sounds more like a shit machine, imo.

I live in the deep woods so, if they show up here, we'll just turn loose 40-50 chickens on their sorry ass!

That's what I was thinking. Chicken food. They will own nothing and they will be happy!
