VermiCompost
Earth Friendly and Effective
 
What is it... | Application | "Quotes" | Findings | Raising Worms
 
Methods of Application:
Tea bag - make vermicompost tea in 5 gallon bucket (use tea bag until it falls apart, then sprinkle contents on soil around your favorite plants or blend the contents into potting soil. Ever see a prayer plant bloom? Get one and give it some of this. It will bloom!

Liquid vermicompost - One 16 oz. bottle dilutes into as much as 30 gallons, or use it straight to aid germination of seeds. Use in place of water to moisten a paper towel. It cuts germination time by as much as 70%. Pour into water to root cuttings. Spray or mist it on leaves. It will absorb through them. Add to water when watering plants.
Helpful tip: Plants like rain water over tap water.

Mulch- Use as a fertilizing mulch around trees, shrubs, and bushes. Add to vegetable garden and till in to add body and nutrients to soil. Start your own worm farm. Mulch contains a significant amount of breeder worms as well as babies and cocoons.

1/4" screenings - No mature worms but lots of babies and cocoons. Excellent for potting soil, flower bed additive, garden use, or fertilizer layer under colored mulch around favorite trees or shrubs.

1/8" screenings- May contain a worm or two with no cocoons. Contains highest percentage of worm castings -- a premium product good for any and all applications including but not limited to casting tea, a key ingredient in organic compost tea brew. Add vermiculite to it for a supreme potting soil. Till into garden or simply top feed throughout the growing season. Worm castings have a mucous membrane that breaks down completely in 2-1/2 years. The longer it sits around, the more nutrients will be released at once. Fresh moist castings contain the highest amount of active microbial life which seems to be most beneficial to vegetation. No one can explain exactly why or how it works! That's why I say "Mother Nature knows best." (Mother Nature - beginning of time)
