    Bug and worm farms are still under appreciated.. it is how a lot of animals and crops start... from those two things.

      The Sonoma worm farm is also pretty good setup. The Arizona worm farm in phoenix is different using piles rather then long rows

    People use up to 20 percent worm castings when growing weed. Works great.

    • @racebiketuner
      @racebiketuner 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      I've done a lot of experimenting with percentages. Seems like it takes a minimum of 3% to make any difference. In my experience, there's little benefit using concentrations over 10% except for heavy feeders like tomataoes and cannabis. In that case, I find 20% is the upper limit. At that concentration, you need to adjust for drainage when growing in comtainers. To do that I add a mixure of 2 parts organic rice hulls and 1 part propagation grade (less than 1/8") pumice. For heavy feeders in containers, I recommend 75% container mix, 20% castings and 5% rice hull/pumice mix as a starting point.

      Yes, it is also a hot manure and you must watch out for persistent herbicide, antibiotics and/topical insecticides…

    Very well done. I enjoyed watching all the way to the end. I use a 200 hundred gallon water trough for my worm bin. The only time the worms crawl up the sides is during or before a storm. That's the only time this happens.
    Thanks for the great video.

  • @torg5511
    @torg5511 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Not sure if this would scale up, but I found that if meat, cheese, and bones go through a Bokashi cycle they don't attract vermin and the worms love it. It's a great benefit to me as I get a hotter pile with additional nutrients and minerals, especially calcium from the bones, in the end compost. I only compost because we have big old elm trees that drop literally tons of leaves in the yard and street. My problem is getting enough nitrogeneous material to keep the piles warm/hot, so once I found a way to use the trimmings and table scraps it helped a lot. Worms are a great help in getting good to great compost in my backyard composting setup. Great video and thanks for sharing it.

    • @estebancorral5151
      @estebancorral5151 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You have enough nitrogen from the elm. Prune your elms in the spring from the new growth. Compost the prunings. Do it again in late summer.

    • @dertythegrower
      @dertythegrower 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Sadly.. there is a huge epidemic with bad manure from cow and pig farms lately.. in my county it was even talked about recently because of our pig farma reusing the herbicide you talk of, which is contaminated and then given to counties for their composting efforts for locals... vice did a huge thing on it in June or so.. my county pig farm was mentioned and my county is top producer of asparagus.. on earth.

      correction... typos.. Sadly.. there is a huge epidemic with bad manure from cow and pig farms lately.. in my county it was even talked about recently because of our pig farms reusing the herbicide filled by local hay fields...exactly what you talk of, which is contaminated and then given to counties for their composting efforts for locals... vice did a huge thing on it in June or so.. my county pig farm was mentioned and my county is top producer of asparagus.. on earth.

      ⁠@@dertythegroweryou are correct that toxins should not be introduced. However, you have totally missed a point. They do not thermo compost their manure. It will bind the toxins in inert organic compounds. There worms will do the rest. You do not name your county and so accept being part of a cover-up.

    • @racebiketuner
      @racebiketuner 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      It's a huge problem where I live. No "clean" manure available locally and it's not for lack of trying. I can get it trucked in from a neighboring state, but the freight doubles the cost. Lots of fruit trees in my area, so I collect a lot of "leftovers." Most of the remaining greens are coffee grounds collected from local shops.

      The other thing is lots of places compost manure first. The California Sonoma worm farm on TH-cam shows they take dairy manure and put it in a metal bin and it heats up to 180 or whatever for two weeks.
      I ordered from them and they’re a good company. Really the best price wise I think.

      They're not, but if you pay attention to the point in the video where he's showing and telling about the castings, he mentions all the manure they use is "pre-composted".
      What he means by that is when they collect manure from the stables, they're hot composting it; that leeches and neutralizes most of the bad stuff before feeding it to the worms to finish it off. They're not just adding manure to the worm bins as soon as they get it👌🏾
