Worm Farming Revealed, Free Guide To Raising Worms and Worm Compost.

"You offer solid resources throughout the site and your video showing the DIY Worm Bin proves how easy it can be to get started."

This is a FREE GUIDE that I created to help people grow larger, tastier, and healthier produce (not too mention greener house plants and lawns  as well). By now I'm sure you know it has something to do with worms. Well, your right, but It's not actually these wonderful composters themselves that are beneficial. It's their poop. Yep, you heard me, WORM POOP! (a.k.a. worm castings) Nature's richest and healthiest soil amendment on Earth.

Watch How Fun And Easy This Is!

You may not realize it, but everyday we walk on it, play in it, and best of all we eat it. Well, ok not directly, but the plants do. Worms turn dying vegetation into rich plant food for the next generation of plant life. They've been doing it right under our noses for thousands of years.

I remember the first time I started a worm bin I did it all wrong. The bin stunk, I wasted my time and money, and the worms died. You won't make the same mistake I did, because I'll show you how to do it right the first time. Here is a list of the ways it benefited me and how it can benefit you also...

Never spend a dime on harmful chemical fertilizers or worry about burning your plants.

Turn your garbage into a rich soil amendment.

Grow a BIGGER, TASTIER fruit.

Get away from harmful pesticides.

Produce fertilizer twice as fast and more nutritious than any garden composter.

Help Reduce Our Addiction to landfills. Give it to the worms.

Create "Worm Tea" a wonderful power drink for plants.

Reclaim the soil by spreading the fertile truth on it.

And a lot more!

JUST BY FEEDING WORMS YOUR GARBAGE!

I want to reveal "THE DIRT" on how you can  restore your soil to its natural, healthy microbial state, while feeling good about giving back to the land. I've been gardening for years. I've tried chemical fertilizers and pesticides and quite frankly, they scare me!

I'm sure you've heard the stories before. The chemicals do nothing but rob and kill the soil. so, if we were made from the soil, then what are the chemicals doing to us? How did we get to this point in agriculture? Well, I set out on a mission to find a better way for myself and my family. I wanted to find a natural way of growing a rich soil amendment for my garden, lawn, and plants and low and behold I did. It was right under my nose all along. WORMS! Yep, That's exactly why they were created. They are nature's recycling creatures. I guess if nature was designed to do it right, then we can too and at Worm Farming Revealed so can you.

So, roll up your sleeves, put on your gloves, and get ready to get dirty. (actually the worms do all the work all you have to do is feed them...oh, and change their bedding once in a while;-)

best compost bin, build compost bin, homemade compost bins

The best compost bin is a wormbin. Come on- you made it to a worm composting website. I am a worm farmer and of course I truly believe in what I do so I highly recommend a worm farm. Why am I so passionate about worms? Composting with them is:
1. NOT space prohibitive
2. NOT stinky
3. Way faster than a heap
4. Worms are cool.

worm factory worm bin

Really: I do both worms and have a tradional pile. My heap works during the warm months but my worms work all year long. My heap processes the big bulky items and my worms produce me with a finer end product. I feed and water them 4 times a month (weekly) and they eat, breed and poop. What a life! What are you waiting for? Start a worm farm today.

composting basics, compost how to make, composting methods

This article will discuss Composting Basics. Although I strongly prefer worm composting (thus the website), there are other methods that appeal to many people. Such as: traditional pile, bokashi and trenching.

I must first start with vermicomposting, using worms to compost is odor free and not space prohibitive. Browse all through this website for more information on worm composting.

Traditional piles have their advantages - for example - a pile can process a lot of materials but there are also challenges: need for increased space, critters (like possums/rats) and odors. When you are doing a tradional pile type, you must have the guidelines to be successful.

Read this article "Traditional Pile VS Worm Bins"

Bokashi is a method that uses a yogurt like culture to process your scraps. An advantage of this method is that you can process almost all items, even meat and dairy.

Trench Composting is a super simple method of digging a hole or trench and burying your scraps. A big down side to this is time and dogs. It takes a while for the scraps to break down AND dogs will dig up the goodies if you don't bury them deep enough.

What is the

Best Compost Bin? I hope this article helps you decide which composting method is right for you.

One more thing you need is a kitchen compost pail . I tried operating out of plastic bags to collect the scraps and it gets really nasty. A collection pail will make your live easier, trust me.

Once you decide which composting method is right for you, it is time to build a bin . All you have left to do is start making COMPOST!

Composting Horse Manure, compost manure piles

Composting Horse Manure has its challenges. You can compost it using the pile method or with red wiggler worms (aka manure worms). horse If you are going to use the pile method, it is important to layer the manure with plenty of fiber material like straw, leaves or cardboard. And to keep the pile wet. Using this simple method, it will take approximately 6 months for the manure to become usable compost.

You may choose to use to composting worms help speed up the process. But if you do, there are several tips that will help you succeed.

Rinse the poop to remove as much urine as possible before adding to pile/bin (most of the time horse manure is mixed with straw or shavings which will absorb the urine) worms dont like urineMake sure the horses have not be DEWORMED with a chemical dewormer, if they have then you need to let the manure sit for at least 8 weeks before adding to bin.fresh manure will heat, so let it sit for 3-4 weeks before adding to bin (I always let mine sit for 2 months before adding)Do not broadcast feed the poop in a worm bin, just in case it is "bad" or the worms dont like it, just feed in 1/4-1/2 of the bin so they have somewhere to go if they dont like it.

Composting equine poo can be extremely beneficial to your garden, the end results are nutrient rich compost that will nourish well.

Ants in compost bin

by Brendan.behan
(Dublin)

Hi,
does it matter if there are ants in the compost bin?
Answer from BigTex Worms
Ants are usually a sign that the compost bin is too dry. If you wet it down good for a couple days, they will leave.
They are not harmful to the worms but they are a nuisance to us humans tending the beds.
I have tried using diatomaceous earth with a little success but wetting the bin has worked the best for my bins in the past.
