Three easy ways to build a worm farm

Worm castings are black gold for the garden, they are absolutely packed with the good stuff that makes our soil sing and are moisture and nutrient magnets! A slosh of diluted worm castings and water onto a tired pot plant can help it re-wet and re-invigorate it. Composting worms are not fussy and there are several ways you can harvest the rewards of their hard work. All they need is food, water & shelter – Millie shows us three different ways of making the worms welcome at your place without the need for a fully constructed farm. A Way with Worms # 1 – Potted Paddock Millie runs a simple, no fuss, free-range worm farm in a large plastic pot which is dead easy to replicate at home. Materials Required: One large plastic pot Hessian (or similar) to cover Avery mesh (optional) A Way with Worms # 2 – Free Range Farm Materials Required: Bucket with lid Drill and bit Shovel A Way with Worms # 3 – Polystyrene Palace One down side of the potted paddock and free-range worm farm is that you cannot harvest the liquid leachate which can also contain beneficial microbes and is absolute gold for your plants. To harvest leachate, you will need a fully enclosed farm – here is how to make one for next to nothing using polystyrene fruit boxes. While these boxes are a bit of an environmental nightmare, they are everywhere, so repurposing them and diverting them from the waste stream is positive – they are also well insulated, meaning they are perfect for worm farm construction. Materials Required: Polystyrene fruit box with lid Small section of hose or poly pipe (about 10cm – 12cm) 5mm gravel (about half a standard bucket) Shade cloth or fabric Bedding material – compost, coco fibre, rotted leaves A handful of worms and castings Watch Gardening Australia on ABC iview: http://iview.abc.net.au/programs/gard...
