Vermicompost is the resulting finished material from a composting worm farm. Vermicompost consists of the manure of worm- "castings" (or worm poo) and any other material that may not have actually been eaten by the worms but has decomposed with the castings of the worms.
_______________________________________
**What makes VC better than traditional compost?
While both break down organic materials, the worms impart extra things to the Vermicompost.
Vermicompost bring enzymes, micro organisms, microbes and humus, the worms mucus, and the bacteria and microbes from the worms’ gut and from the process of converting materials while in contact with the worms, their secretions and bacteria.

**What are the worms fed - cardboard, newspaper, old leaves, grass, fruit & vegetable scraps. My worms are not fed any manure.
**Benefits for the Soil
– contains water soluble nutrients
– it may hold moisture better than “plain soil”
– may improve soils ability to hold water
– may improve structural properties, aeration and porosity
– may reduce the level of some contaminants in the materials “input” into the farm
– it contains worm “mucus”, which may help keep nutrients from washing away
– may be considered an excellent, nutrient rich soil conditioner
– may have a higher saturation of nutrients than the material input into the farm
-it may enrich the soil with micro organisms, bacteria and fungi
– may increase the microbial activity in some soils by as much as 10 to 20 times
– will also help attract deeper dwelling “garden worms” to the garden ( endogeic/anecic worms)

***Benefits For Plant Growth:
– may improve root structure and growth
– may enhance crop yields, germination and plant growth
– may be a slow release material, and be available for a longer time
______________________________________
***Benefits For the Environment:
– domestic worm farming helps reduce materials sent to landfills, saving the earth, and also saving the community money by reducing landfill need and garbage collection services.
– It helps to divert, in particular, material sealed in plastic bags which when sent to landfill do not decompose back to the earth, but make methane gas, which adds to the greenhouse effect
– Domestic worm farms use other common materials from the house and yard such as paper, cardboard, leaves, grass
Households with worm farms seem MUCH more in tune to recycling in general.
_____________________________________
– Vermicompost may be applied to the soil around existing plants at a rough rate of a handful per plant, agitated into the soil then watered in.
– Vermicompost may be used to mix up soil for a garden, plant pots or seed germination/cuttings.
For these purposes addition of approx. 20% (1 part to 4 parts other soil mix) is sufficient, and has been tested by many as being the ideal amount to use.
Using more (than 30%) gives worse, and at times MUCH worse results.
Remember the value is in the MICROBIAL content of the material and its inherent properties as a soil CONDITIONER – NOT the value of its N-P-K.
The Vermicompost Can Be Used To Make “Actively Aerated Castings Tea” AKA “AACT See my other ads or website for free instructions.
