1st compost tea using my TeaLab Bubble Snake. Its a blend of compost, castings and a few organic ammendments along with some Rootwise microbial innoculants for my corn that is/has tasseled and is putting on ears. 18-20 hr brew and it'll be ready tomorrow morning just before sunrise 😁🌽😁

Here is another idea on how to have biologically active bedding. It’s not required, but I know a lot of people already have electric composters. I’ve loved having this to just toss scraps in, and it’s easy for my wife and kids to do the same during the day. It is a pricey machine, but depending on your goals it could be another option. I would also say this is a “luxury” item because if power goes out you can’t use it. The idea of precomposting is to use bedding that is biologically active! This is the principle that I want to stick. If you just use plain inactive bedding, your worms will not adjust very quickly. My worms cannot keep up with how many food scraps I get, so having other ways to use them is part of my game plan! I collect scraps from my parents and aunt as well, so the scraps add up quickly. WAYS I USE FOOD SCRAPS -feeding the indoor worm bins -feeding outdoor worm bins -feeding in ground garden worm bins -freezing for future worm feedings -electric composters -outdoor compost piles The list can go on! Let me know how you use your food scraps ☺️

I created this community to make worm composting, living soil, and healthier plant systems feel less overwhelming and more organized! Check out the classroom tab for a self paced learning system and utilize this community for learning and connecting! Instead of digging through endless comments and videos, I wanted one place where people could: -learn step by step -ask questions -connect with others -grow healthier plants from the soil up Feel free to introduce yourself in the comments! Tell us: - where you’re from - what worms you have (or want) - whether you’re brand new or experienced - what you’re hoping to learn I’ll keep building this space over time with videos, resources, discussions, and live support. If you’re new to worm composting or living soil, welcome! You’re in the right place! :)

Nothing much. Just posting to say Hi and to see if this will count as my first post. Ha
