Pumpkin vs Red Wigglers 62-day time-lapse - FAST PLAYBACK - worm vermicomposting
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 янв 2019
- The bin's worm population was split; half of them remaining in the bin & the other half of the worms were loaded into the hollowed-out pumpkin. A bunch of shredded paper was loaded in after them to keep the worms up near the top of the pumpkin. The idea being that the pumpkin would be consumed not just from below but also from throughout its inside surface. It worked just as planned.. the worms made their way through the pumpkin quickly.
The top surface of the bid's contents were continuously being moved around - by the worms underneath the surface, and with the help of other helper critters in the bin such as the many pill bugs.

i love how there's a "versus" in the title as if the pumpkin had a fighting chance of victory
I think the pumpkin had the advantage. I've seen pumpkins decompose without worms, so this video is nothing more than just watching a pumpkin decay over 60 days.
Man vs car is a smashing success
I mean he had the high ground!
Damn I had 20 bucks on the pumpkin
They are still putting a VS in between Tyson Fury and Antony Joshua and Joshua stands as much chance as this pumpkin did.
This is why they tell you to never stand in the same spot in the woods for more than 10 days at a time
Lolol
😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂
people say that?
thanks for the advice!
Reminds me of when Spongebob's house got eaten by nematodes
He's right
Edit: Shit he's still right
You and the 5 other people that commented that😐😐😐

too funny.
Damn dude, that's funny

oooohhhh, that's bad!
I’d get sick of eating the same thing two days in a row.
I can handle up to three
We have complex brains. They barely even have a brain.
Bruh i eat rice everyday
I live in Chinese food I’m pretty used to eating the same thing more than a few days in a row xD
They eat manure too 😂
They're gonna do this to all of us one day
@Strange Dee* Lee hahaha! 😁😂😁😂 🔥 🔥 🔥
@Strange Dee* Lee me too. My dad always said cemeteries were a waste of good land.
fuuck
sorry imma burn myself to ashes
@Strange Dee* Lee why is no one talking about your profile picture wtf
This is your pumpkin. This is your pumpkin on worms... Any questions?
Haaaaaaa.. damn, that was funny! 😊😊

This is actually what happens when we die and get buriee
You can't leave anything lying around these days without someone or something stealing it.
cant have shit in the bin
I'm amazed you could stand 2 months without getting in and digging around. Your willpower is incredible!
One of the very few things I did do - which was just out of view of the camera - is poke a couple vent holes into the back. It was becoming so smelly that I just wanted it to be eaten & dried up already.. I somehow thought that making a few punctures around back might help get it through its stinky phase more quickly. Haha The piercings were made on day-13 & a small flap from one of the piercings comes into view a week later on day-20
I also periodically (likewise, out of view of the camera) poked my fingertip gently down into the material to ensure that it wasn't drying out. To my surprise, the material retained its moisture just fine the entire time
Thank you for watching! ..oh, and thanks for recognizing the immense willpower it took to keep my grubby hands out of the bin ;)
Lol
@@A-V after eating the whole pumpkin was there a explosion in the number of red wigglers?
I don't recall seeing any significant change to their numbers. There may have been... but I cannot say for certain. Thanks for watching!
@@A-V lol
Can you please release the full 62 day unedited video? Thanks
Hahaha
Bro you dum af for that. 😂
Sure - but be warned.. its an hour long. It replays each and every image taken over that time at a rate of 30 frames per second. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/p9NYqc1edv8/видео.html Thanks for watching!
Not sure anymore if he mean to joking or not
@@anonymousstout4759 he was joking. He was asking foe a 60 day long video.
God: (creates worm) Hello there!
Worms: Thanks for the worm welcome!
God: *creates birds*
We really have no clue
Lmao....🤣
That's what you get when you make such a horrible pun.

those little guys are amazing, most people have no idea how valuable their castings/poo are for any garden
Yeah, but will the bones disappear ?
I was thinking the same thing lol
FOR BODIES AND BONES USE PIGS,THEY ARE OMNIVORES THE WILL EAT ANYTHING
Over the edge dont worry it was a boneless pumpkin
@@xdragonxmasterx6790 I thought those were a myth
Alex H. Do you have an evil ex ?
I love how in time elapses like these it really does make the dirt seem alive
This was great! I remember, when I was young, watching the TV show and they had time lapse photography! They showed all sorts of things! One of my favorites was the seed, it sort of looked like a bean, coming up through earth, sprouting and growing! I've always loved this type of filmmaking. You did a wonderful job! Thank you!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it - your kind words are very much appreciated. Thank you for watching!
We have a worm bin, but I prefer to make pumpkin soup from the pumpkin. The worms can have the skin. The worms sure did make quick work of a lot of watermelon rind this summer.
I love watching these videos. It certainly puts a kink into the "everything has to be chopped up for the worms to eat it" crowd. Plus, it's really cool to watch. 😎
Wow that's amazing! I would not have thought a pumpkin would be broken down so quickly!
My dogs were going crazy - the music in this video made them IMMEDIATELY calm down!! I’m honestly shook haha
Do you clean their litter box after they poop?
Pure black gold.
Yes, and plant vegetable crops in it!
Worms produce the most fertile and valuable poo. Next would be rabbits.
The poop is the thing we want on worm bin 😂 they are not fed for nothing !
Yes but you have to have little tiny containers!

Oh my gosh, that was a distant yet familiar reference. It’s just about time to send out links to the turkey drop episode for Thanksgiving 2020.
WKRP.....You win Dustin !
Thanks! That was a great show.
In Cincinnati?
Came to watch a pumpkin, left pondering life.
Amazing how quick the first 10 days went. Like a balloon deflating.
Everybody chillin until the pumpkin deflates like a balloon
What I thought was the most interesting was how lively the other surface matter is as the worms come to surface and shift things around ever so slightly. You don't notice it in normal speed. So that was really interesting to me.
Thank you for watching!
This reminds me of when my dog died when I was 10. It was a intense winter. We thought he ran away but a few months later after the snow melted.. we found him. The flys came first, then the maggots. I came every day to make sure all the worms were fed well. We all surrender to nature at some point. 🐕
Awesome video, love the time lapse!
Just set up our heated outdoor worm bins here in Texas
So cool! For the first 10 days it looks like the pimpkin is just sinking into the container!
Don't laugh at the pumpkin, that's us once we become worm food.
Exactly . .. ashes to ashes , dust to dust
@@fortunatoofamontillado1059 Yup.
Not if you go out in a blaze of glory
@@LordKrhiyos True, but then you're not "worm food." :-)
@@LordKrhiyos So... what you get sent out into space where there aren't any detritivores?
Oh my god I love you. 😍 I’m going to watch this a thousand times.
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video :D
They just keep getting better and better. Love watching!
I want a Go-Pro in my casket so my family can see my body decompose and be eaten like this, bet they would love it!
it looked like the pumpkin deflated ROFL 😂😂 cool video though 👌
Lanelle Toscano so cool and so gross
This was a great video. I went over to a guys house once to get some rabbit manure. Under his cages were piles of manure and around the edges there were earth worms right under the soil. I think I got as many worms as I did rabbit manure. That was a great trip and my gardens really benefited 2 ways.
Sounds like some good shit...
That was awesome 👌
Shoulda drew a face on the pumpkin first
Basically a video of my bank account over a weekend
This is really beautiful
Well done. Incredible movement.
My heart rate and blood pressure lowers watching this 😌
I always enjoy your time lapse videos. It is so amazing that these creatures can do such a great job. Thanks for sharing! Catherine
How quickly can they get rid of 180 pounds of flesh? Asking for a friend.
Go with pigs. They won't leave thr bones like the worms.
Waaaaahaaaa!!! Me too😎
@@thepalehorseman8775 pigs stink to bad😎
You better come up with something fast before they find your wife in the freezer
@@richardmaurer9002 hahaha nice try mr fbi, its my neighbour.
Watched again today. Still fantastic!!!!!!
It would be a very different world without my invention of composting
And my sword
I had the feeling that was you!
Wow, wow that is really cool, good & educational video!.. you always seem to amazed me with all your experimental/research videos. Thanks for all the time you put into this & shared it with us.
I very much appreciate your kind words. Glad you enjoyed it - thank you for watching!
Wow, nice work....Good to know that you could go on vacation for two months without any issues....lol

Cool. Well made vid. When the seeds hatched, they got those too!
Hey my friend wants to know if this will work on a body, like ahhh he just wants to know.
Great vid! I fed the smallest jack o lantern pumpkin to my worm bin when I started it a couple of weeks ago and every seed germinated. I pulled up the sprouts and put them in the feed zone.
I had a small pumpkin too that I threw into one of my really active bins. A few weeks ago I had a number of sprouts that popped out & they too became worm food. In hindsight... I wonder how this video would have turned out if I had not removed the seeds from the pumpkin.
@@A-V wrong time of year for pumpkin,but maybe 2 butternut or acorn squash next bin turn over?
Actually.. I have a cantaloupe melon in the freezer which might be the subject on a similar upcoming time-lapse. The next one though must have some tweaks to improve the result.. such as: a) do the time-lapse in the dark using a flash camera, and b) enclose the environment to boost the ambient moisture levels throughout (ideally resulting in the worms making more appearances out in the open). Thanks for watching!
given the general persistence of pumpkins, how rapidly it collapsed in just the first few days was the most surprising part
Dang! Frickin worms, man! So satisfying to watch! 😆
Wow. Best time lapse!!
I love my vermicompost, I feed the worms well and they repay me with amazing soil.
Whenever I add new worms to my compost I tell them "you guys are going to love your life now!"
Very cool and surprisingly soothing
I noticed that worms seem to really love anything from the gourd family. They go crazy for that stuff
Fair play to the cameraman, I couldnt sit there for 62 days straight 👌
Do you really think he sat there for 62 days?
@@TheEthikos absolutely.
I think he may have left the camera there and did other things like shopping and laundry. Might need confirmation on this but I doubt he held the camera for 2 months solid
@@Englandsbestlover Nah he absolutely held the camera for 2 months straight. There's obviously no other way.
Slash Exactly 👌
That was awesome! ✌
Amazing video, know how well they work in our compost!
That-that-that-that-that.. That was honestly kinda terrifying and interesting at the same tine.
Just wondering how you did this without getting flies? In Australia it would be hard to not get maggots but would love to try this
To be honest I sorta expected to get some sort of pests while making this but maybe because it was winter I did not - luckily. Perhaps also because it was done in my basement - as opposed to outdoors where more bugs probably would've been attracted to it. Thanks for watching!
That was amazing and scary...all at the same time.
Me gusta ver estos videos, es curioso y me ha motivado a tener mi propia vermicompostera.
¡Gracias por ver!
Alt title: Pumpkin molds as worms dance vigorously
This is incredible. Been watching all your videos and this is by far the coolest!
Thank you for your comment - I'm glad you enjoyed the time-lapse.. and thank you for watching my channel!
You cant eat a whole pumpkin
Red wigglers: Hold my beer
Best comment ever!
Great video!
I like how the pumpkin just starts sinking
Thank you for watching!
Holy cow! That is fantastic! Going to share this video for sure!
That would be great, I really appreciate it - thank you! :) :)
Are you on any of the FB groups?
No, I am not. Honestly.. lately I've been trying to wean myself off FB; it always feels like such a colossal waste of time when I go on there. Haha!! :) :) Why do you ask?
A V I shared your video in a worm group and they want to know who you are and get that video shared!
That's awesome - thank you so much Emily! I went up onto FB & I can see one vermi group out there with over 25k members. Wow. Which group(s) are you part of? Will I be able to see or will the group(s) require me to join? I am curious to see what kinds of feedback/reaction it spurs on. Thanks again?
Amazing! Thank you.
Nice time lapse!
Thank you for watching!
My brother does the same thing but with carrots. It looks pretty crazy how it deflates and they bust out of the center of the food.
"I Got Worms". Thats what you should name your channel🌶🍔🌶
I know - I know. My channel is just my initials and more-or-less meaningless. Some day I have to come up with a better channel name.. "I Got Worms" is interesting - but also could be misinterpreted as me having some sort of parasitic infestation. Haha.. Thanks for watching!
Dumb and Dumber reference !
BAM!!
I see now. I had to look that one up - haha! Thanks for watching
@@A-V yeah, it's a somewhat funny line from that movie😁
Are you the gas man?
Dude, I think I saw like 2 worms.
Amazing.
That's the one downside about this video.. as interesting as it is to se how quickly the worms ate the pumpkin, they stay out of view of the camera due to the bright overhead light. I wonder how this would've turned out if it had been filmed in a dark place with a flash. Anyhow - thanks for watching!
A V
Maybe try doing another one but in infrared. That would be interesting to see if anything changes
It's amazing right? He has at least 5 worms in there!
@@A-V I'd love to see you feed the worms something covered in luminous bacteria. Or something reactive to ultra violet light and film that way.
Idk if that's even possible but it would be sick to see a night crawler rave.
Healthy soil! My plants are love this soil a lot!
Ninja worms, man. You cant even see them, but the pumpkin just dissapears
I can hear the pumpkin screaming in terror....
How big of a plastic bin did you use? Like, the size of it? Great video!
They are those "bus bins", also known as "bus boxes", used by the bus boys when they come to clear the tables at the restaurant. I have some of the more shallow kind and I have a few of the deeper kind too. I think the deeper kind is best suited for vermicomposting. Thanks for watching!
I was just recommended this video, but in reverse. Lol.
This is so epic, great shots and black background is perfect! Exactly the random, yet educational and literately jaw-dropping entertainment video I am always searching for and rarely find!
I appreciate the kind words. Thank you so much for watching and commenting. Please be advised that I have a sequel to this time-lapse in the works. In fact, it is very nearly done (it is presently at day 66). If you have not done so already, then be sure to subscribe so you don't miss it once it is published. Also please consider checking out the other videos on my channel.
A V thank you! Will do!
🎵🎶 Red Wigglers, the're the Cadillac of worms! 🎶🎵
Welcome to another episode of why is this in my recommended
a question arises spontaneously! what tools do you use to finely chop organic waste in order to facilitate the feeding of worms?
Thanks I was wondering how to get rid of those bodies in my basement 🤗
Pottery kiln. Leaves no trace. 🤫
Gotta grind their bones into a fine powder and feed it back into your bin if you don't wanna get caught
Just move.
@@LowEndMarauder A kiln leaves no bones. I already tried it with a deer carcass.
@@nogoodcops6557 Haha I was talking to crazycharlie BigCheese. But yeah incineration is your best bet. /edit Also I am mildly concerned at this information LOL
DAMN in only ten days it was that far down
My longest lasting Halloween tradition is carving a pumpkin and then letting it stay outside until it turns into dust.
This is amazing to see!
Imagine if one day the ground moves at this time frame but everything else is normal and any moment you could be hounded of your flesh by supersonic worms?... Just me then OK.
Sounds like an interesting movie concept (where the human species is extinct at the end of course)
@@azlizzie and in the end, all that's alive is a writhing perfectly spherical mass of super speed bacteria and bugs that coat the entire planet. All mountains carved flat and all canyons filled with waste.
@@MichaelHenderson59 you might enjoy learning about the theory of crater earth. it's quite an interesting theory about earth actually being inside a crater and the way out of the crater and onto the larger area that surrounds the crater is in Antarctica. Yep, it's quite a fascinating story that includes suspense, thrills, chills...you know, all the stuff people love to watch in movies. Yep.
😳😳🤮
Sounds like a cool SCP. Time stop worms. Or Lightspeed worms.
I love how you can see the bedding writhe and wriggle but you can never quite clearly see the worms.
I love this videos.
Great video
Nature: "This could be us, but you pumping your corpses with toxic embalming stuff."
Must have made some great soil.
Amazo! Halloween 2022 is going to be a happy time for one small red worm colony that came out of suspended animation yesterday on the drive home from PetSmart.
Sounds like fun - best of luck with it. And thank you for watching!
That was awesome !!!
Amazing time lapse man!
Thanks dude!
This reminds me of that time those worms cane and vored sponge bob’s house
Cursed comment
A Bag o' Chips.....when worms cane and vored his house....what was it that they did? Never saw the episode but I am curious what it means to cane and vore something.
Cool vid!
muy buen contenido brother tambien tengo lombrices y es satisfactorio ver como humifican y reparan el suelo ;D
they can eat a lot. awesome
