    Amazing video! Thank you so much. Can you show how made the overflow? Did you use a pvc bulkhead? I’m having a hard time trying to figure out the best way to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

    If your compost exceeds the proper temperature does it ruin your compost if so how would you bring it back to recommended temp?

      @TexasOrganicGardening 7 дней назад

      @@nobodyfilms5262 it can get too hot yes…temperatures over 160 degrees F can kill the beneficial microbes and bacteria. If you notice that it is getting well above 140 the recommended action is to aerate and turn the pile.

  • @Amassakoul007
    @Amassakoul007 3 месяца назад

    Great set up! Only suggestion consider raising the barrels 2 to 4 ft. That should give you enough pressure to eliminate the pump and your solar system ( solar panel, charge controller and battery).

  • @jilltompson2306
    @jilltompson2306 5 месяцев назад

    Could be the quality of your worm castings. Try a different source. Or, several. To prevent the saturation problem use an equal amount of Perlite and/or horticultural sand with each soil. And, to ensure that the seeds are good - germinate all of them in a control soil before transplanting them into your experiment. Just thoughts. Well done for doing this video. And, thank you!
