I'm going to go back and watch from the beginning. I thought you were on a break I had not seen you... Ok I'm back lol .. I wonder if the moisture was the key to the size.
Loved this video. Worth mentioning that the cow manure looks as if it has already spent some time on a compost heap; our compost heaps get far too hot for worms when we add fresh compost.
I am running an outdoor commercial vermi composting and indoor v culture farm with red wigglers, using pre composted cattle manure and neem leaves as N source and dry leaves, saw dust, and wheat straw as carbon source. It keeps the temp in range during summers as we have very hot summer in Pakistan. The worms love to breed in and compost this pre composted mixture which is used in wedges. It is a foregone conclusion that red wigglers thrive in cattle manure, wood chips and dry leaf mixture even in indoor bins, you may draw conlusion abt ENCs. Having said that pl keep some parameters like moisture, food to worm ratio constant if you want to draw some realistic conclusions.
Very cool results so far!! Looks like the mixture bin is the better habitat so far, those were some big fat worms!! Excellent video!!🪱🪱🪱
Good morning, My Dear. Great job 👏 and I'm glad your 🪱 are doing well. I'm glad the mixed bins was saved to the end and the Best👍
Thank you very much my friend.
I learnt what works best in worm bins. thanks. I'll be back to see the whole journey.
Happy to share helpful information. Have a great afternoon.
Another great experiment. Thanks for sharing 😊
You are very welcome.
Variety is the Spice of Life!…great job!
Thank you. True having the appropriate variety makes the world of difference.

Yes, i was on a break for longer than planned an now I'm back but doing less. The moisture plays such a big role in their development.
Wow, thank you for sharing ❤
You are welcome.
Nice video😃 how many wormys have you roughly got in in each bin?
I put 11 I each.

Yes, it is indeed composted manure.
I was amazed at the difference. Thanks for watching.
Have you made holes in the container.
I no longer put holes in the bottom of worm bins because I can control the moisture level. However, I do put holes in the sides and lid for air flow.
Very nice 🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼🌼
Thank you.
Great experiment. Those worms are pretty big,
They surprised me.
It seems that they had more food choices. In the mixed bedding. Take care. 😎
They had bedding and food scraps or bedding and manure, the difference between these mix bins is the moisture. Could be the manure too, who knows?
Would love to see an update when you get the chance.
Thanks for watching. Unfortunately, we relocated and that experiment was discontinued.
@@WDWormsnGarden bummer. I’d love to see this restarted when you get settled. Is it a bigger space? I hope you love your new space!
Great
Those worms were very happy..
They sure are.

As a worm enthusiast myself I'm just starting now . I use claypots and I my experiment worms tend to eat the dried leaves faster than animal manure
They do go through leave rather quickly.
Wow looks like the moisture is the key so far. 🪱😁
Definitely.
