Red Wiggler Worms Horizontal Migration Time-Lapse Days 0-35 FULL - vermicomposting

Күн бұрынThe red wiggler worms are set loose in the section of the bin where there is finished vermicompost... and the far end of the bin is loaded up with fresh bedding and food - with periodic additions of fresh moisture
The worms are expected to move into the section with the fresh food and regular waterings, but in the end they seem to wander all around the container

Composting worms generally live in the top couple inches of soil & feed on the surface... consuming decomposing materials. I'm sure they are probably present to some degree in landfills, but in landfills most of what we would want them to break down is buried deep beyond their reach.

This exposed some glaring ignorance on my part. I work in lawn care and am usually surprised when I find worms on the surface, or near to it. I had thought that worms reside decently deep into the dirt. As it turns out, worms spend quite a lot of their time right below the grass! This has been quite informative. I feel like a bit of a dingus, working in the dirt without being familiar with its residents. Thanks for the informative video!

@@pollolor15 you can but most people want to do the opposite. At least, that's what I've heard. Add your finished compost to the old soil to boost the soil nutrients without causing shock to plants. It's easier to mix compost into old soil because it keeps the soil consistency with the soil around it rather than having a random patch of just compost with regular soil all around. The roots will travel farther when the soil is consistent. You can do either one if you're putting it in pots and itll make potting compost whether you add compost to the soil or soil to the compost.

There are static composting methods as well. Have a compost mix that is really carbon dominant by way of wood chips and/or leaves and let the fungi do their thing. Certain ways the pile can be constructed too, to allow enough air flow, and having a lot of wood chips helps air flow on its own as well.

They help loosen up the soil so roots can grow easily. The loose soil also allows more air so the roots can absorb nitrogen. It would also allow water to seep down more quickly so the roots don't rot due to too much moisture. Their poop basically has hastened the breakdown process of other organic material so the roots can also absorb the freed up nutrients at a shorter time (as compared to if you simply let the same organic stuff just decay). Worms = healthy soil = healthy plants.

Looks like the worms don't always go for the fresh food material. Some will go to the fresh food material and stay there, some will go there and come back to the semi decomposed portion, and some just stay at the semi decomposed area and just feed there for days! Now I know I don't have to try feed my worm so often, and that I don't have to check progress after just one day 😂 Thank you so much for this video. It's probably more educational than even you realise
@A-V Жыл бұрын
Checking progress daily is certainly not necessary; sometimes I got weeks between check-ins & they do just fine without me :)

Hi@@kiyahb5106 my husband and I compost a bunch of leaves, flowers, and food scrapes, some soil too and we water periodically & the worms keep multiplying, they help in breaking it down 🪱 a few months later we put the worms and new composted soil in planters or pots around the garden. Hope you have a great day 😊👍

at 3:21 a very large worm comes into view to the left of the D and then dies, its last movements are captured in the time lapse. for two days it goes largely untouched, then as it finally begins to break down the other worms move in and between days 11 and 12 it vanishes completely. what a fascinating time lapse! thanks for uploading!
