Although I've been composting leftovers for my garden for many years now, I have never actually tried worm composting. I would love, love, LOVE to incorporate that into my routine now!
Yes, we do compost and worms are wonderful for the garden and they also are great for fish bait, we used to have rabbits many years ago and would compost then and always had plenty of earthworms for fishing and my garden.
I have never done any composting. I would love to get into worm composting so my son and daughter can learn the importance of the "little guy" to the big picture.
My hubby and I started raising worms in 1997 when we moved to a small reservoir in Texas. He really loves talking to kids about his worms. I love using the worm castings in the garden. We have a couple of different compost bins besides the wood worm bins. He has tried various worm bins.
We have a compost tumbler...although I haven't mastered that yet. I tried to convince my husband to let me compost with worms, but to no avail...perhaps someday! - Jessica M.
I have heard of worm composting but I never tried it. Our bunny died (we got him because bunny poo makes great fertilizer) and I had only been considering them for underneath his cage. It would have been a great usage of our limited space.
We compost kitchen waste combined with dried yard clippings and leaves. It really gives a boost to the soil and vegetable plants. Worm composting? Nope, not yet!
Yes, at my old house we had a huge compost, but it wasn't in a bin so my free range chickens got into and ate it all, naughty birds. It was going really well too. I had lots of worms, and other assorted compost bugs that were beneficial. Here, I would need a bin because my dog and the neighborhood cats would eat it.
I have never done worm composting but would be very willing to learn about it. My daughter an granddaughters are big gardeners and I want to help them this year.
We do the typical backyard composting now--it's amazing getting that black, black dirt! I have to admit that worms are pretty gross to me, but I know that they make EXCELLENT composters and I am really excited to try!
I am comfortable trying anything new and this procedure sounds easy and effective.. Plus, I am pretty sure my five year old boy wouldn't mind keeping tabs on the worms and some dirt lol.....
I love composting of all kinds! However, we always tend to go slightly awry with it because we just use our homemade tubs or chicken wire cylinders. It would be so nice to have a fancy new composter!
We have a compost bin at my school that we dump leaves, grass clippings and weeds in; but I've never composted at my home. I would love to have a worm composting set at my home. I've heard that the worm debris is great for the soil.
We do a lot of composting. We started with a pile and discovered it's too dry here so we have to bury the compost and let the drip line compost it down between the plants and in empty areas. We've also tried adding worms, don't know if they are still there.
I do with the help of my landlord, he has an area in the yard where I can take certain foods that are leftover and other items that can be put in this barrel he has.. I am still learning and always willing to learn more :) so thanks
My son has wanted to start a worm composting business for awhile so when I saw this I knew I had to enter! He has started one before but didn't know all he needed to know so this will help him. Tami Lewis
I have never done this with worms but sounds like it would work great. It's not my favorite thought to handle the worms, but it's all good - I could do this :)
I just started my first compost pile this year. I am using a recycled container from the city (they re-purpose old trash/recycling bins) and I find that composting is a bit more daunting than I expected. I think that I would be much more comfortable worm composting - especially with the dogs in the yard. The container is more secure and the worms more efficient. Plus, unlike the re-purposed container from the city, the worm composter comes fully contained and can be moved around the yard to maximize sun exposure. The container from the city has no bottom and I worry about the pets getting into the old food coming out from the bottom. :(
I have never composted worms, My brother did when we were kids he sold them to the bait shop. I remember being grossed out by them, but he also "fed" them cut up newspaper scraps. I have had a compost "pile" before but found my dog eatting out of it, so that is a nice gross share!
I would try the worm composting. The worms are efficient little buggers - and would help the quality of the compost and soil greatly. (around here all we have is hard Georgia Clay)
I've never tried worm composting, my mom is trying it now. I have done regular composting of kitchen scraps, grass clippings, leaves, etc. So I am very comfortable with composting in general & would love to try worm composting. Harlena Dyer/ mnlghtelf@hotmail.com
We compost but we really don't know what we are doing! We throw the leftover worms from fishing trips into our compost sometimes, does that count as worm composting? :)
Hubby would love worms for composting I myself am not as familiar with that. Though as I kid I had to save scraps and stuff in a special bucket for composting.
Yes, I am comfortable with worm composting, we do have a regular compost bin. I would love to make my own compost tea without spending 20 dollars on a bag of castings. upstatemissy@gmail.com
I compost everything which is indirect worm composting. Last summer I bought a Garden Tower Project unit. It does vermicomposting in the center. I did not get it until the end of summer so this will be its first full summer but I could really see how fast the compost settled down last year. It is too cold here for year round so I have to go buy worms this weekend to start again. I did try setting up a plastic worm composting bin last spring but the weather here is just either too hot or too cold to have any degree of success outdoors and I don't have a place indoors, or I would happily try that again. I like worms.
Yes! I have been composting kitchen scraps since I was a child and now share that tradition with my 3, almost 2 year old, and infant. Although we don't have an actual composted, we made a big bin with 4 pallets for leaves and sticks from the yard, and throw kitchen compost into an old garbage can with holes in the bottom. We would Love this for our big organic garden and my boys would have so much fun learning about worms!
We have a small personal vegetable garden in the backyard. There are 4 tomato plants and 2 cucumber plants. I would love to be able to reuse the kitchen scraps for compost!
We compose our yard wastes and our left over veggies/fruits trash. We have a large compost bin in our yard. We spin the bin every so often and use the compose in our garden. We do add worms to our compose so that they help with the process.
We used to have a worm farm. I had to get rid of it because my son kept letting the worms loose (it was in the house). He's 7 now so it would no longer be an issue :)
I have never composted but would like to start! I've never considered worm composting but it could be interesting! kristiedonelson(at)gmail(dot)com Thank you.
I have a large compost bin that I use. It's basic and I mostly put brush and kitchen scraps in it. It definitely helps with my vegetable gardening. I have heard of worm composting but have never tried it. It would be great to try my hand at it.
I would be comfortable with worm composting but have never done it before. I like to fish and we hook worms as bait so shouldnt have a problem with this either.
This would be an interesting way to compost. My grandchildren would love to help as they are into d

ReplyDeleteI've had a worm composter before, but transitioned to large piles when we upgraded to a much larger garden.
