Worm harvest


Since beginning the vermicomposting system, I've only been adding but today I collected castings for the first time. One bin of the Worm Wrangler.com system yielded about two gallons of castings after about 4-5 months of letting the red wigglers do their thing on our kitchen waste. The other bins are stacked and I'm filling about one a month, which means another two gallons of garden gold will be coming my way just as the planting season is really getting underway. I'm going to use this batch to fertilize the asparagus crowns that are going in the ground in the next few days.
