Healthy plants start with healthy soil! I just created a free Skool community where I’m organizing all of my content in to easy to follow playlists/classes/courses. I want to talk about turning food scraps into living soil, growing healthier plants naturally, learning composting and worm farmin

Worm farming for beginners! Cocoons can be big and small, and it all depends on the size of the worm that laid it. I like to fatten up my breeder worms so they make bigger cocoons. This makes them easier to spot! All cocoons are great, but some are just very hard to see. #vermicompost #verm

Worm farming for beginners! When you feed food scraps, the smaller or more blended they are the faster they’ll get processed. Skins and pits especially take a lot longer, but they do eventually break down. Just keep breaking them up when you fluff up your bin and it helps the breakdown process!

Worm farming red wigglers! Here’s a peak at some cocoons after running a breeder cycle. Cocoons are often hard to spot and be extremely small. They often blend into the bedding. I like to fatten up my worms to make the cocoons easier to spot since they are the size of the worm that laid it. #v

Worm farming red wigglers! Here are some cocoons left behind after running a breeder bin. Lots of cocoons and some baby worms have hatched. I have this product for sale on my website if anyone wants to start a cocoon nursery or add to their herd! #vermicompost #vermicomposting #wormcasti

Worm farming red wigglers! Running a breeder bin can help you grow your population quickly, as they are in an environment that encourages cocoon production. They of course make castings along the way as well, but you’re gonna see a lot more cocoons this way vs in a regular bin that’s more focused o

Walmart haul prepping items. I spent $100 including the new mason jars and lids. I’m trying to stock up on mason jars and then pressure can staples that I know my family will eat. Always on a lookout for mason jars but haven’t found any worth driving that far for haha little by little this stash wi

I made this DIY small tote worm farm and I’m doing a check in after 3 weeks. I always make sure it smells earthy, I aerate it, and I make sure and not feed again until they eat the majority of their food. This system is doing fantastic and I think it’s so cool that you can run a worm farm even on a

I made this DIY mini worm farm in these tiny Lowes buckets! I started with 10 worms, they’ve reproduced a ton, made castings, and then I took lots of the babies out last time and put them in a cocoon nursery. I noticed the moisture was more on the dry side so I spritzed it down and made it like a w

Happy Earth Day! I made this for my wife’s birthday one year because she’s obsessed with recycling. ♻️ Hopefully we can all make small choices to live a more eco friendly life! #recycle #earthday #earthdayeveryday #recycling #recyclereuse

Worm farming for beginners! I get asked a lot how you know when the castings are ready/how do you know how to identify castings. I like to wait until the majority of the bedding is castings, and then I’ll sift. You can see in this video how these worms are very much in need of a bedding refresh. I’

Worm farming for beginners! I get asked a lot how you know when the castings are ready/how do you know how to identify castings. Here is a close up and hopefully this video helps explain it a little better! #vermicompost #vermicomposting #wormcastings #wormfarm #wormfarming

Worm farming red wigglers! Here are some baby worms and cocoons after resetting a breeder bin. These worms are so little and sometimes hard to miss, but they’ll grow up and be just as efficient as these bigger worms. 😍 #vermicompost #vermicomposting #wormcastings #wormfarm #wormfarm

Here are some dollar tree prepping items I grabbed for $50. I’m trying to do trips where I’ll spend $20 here, $50 there, or even less if it’s all I can afford that week. I am still new to emergency prepping but I’m grabbing items like these and learning how to can and preserve food! What would you

In my worm farm, I like to run breeder bins to maximize cocoons. When I reset a breeder bin, I am starting to sell the bedding that’s left behind. It’s an inoculant for your new bun that will be full of microbes, cocoons and castings. I’m starting to sell it this way (by the cup) rather than hand p

My go to “all purpose” soil mix. I feel like this is a great blend that’s not too chunky but not too dense. It’s a great in between blend that I have the majority of my houseplants in 🥰 1 part potting mix 1 part perlite 1 part orchid bark 1/2 part worm castings 1/2 part horticultural char

Hoya plant care tips! I have had this plant since it was a small cutting and it’s so cool seeing the progress it has made! I’ve just been letting it trail down up to this point, but I’m going to start letting it climb this circular wall planter! #plantcare #plantcaretips #planttips #w

Worm farming for beginners! The main point of worm farming to me is to get the worm castings, so when it comes time to sift it’s exciting! I like to let them dry down a bit so they aren’t too muddy to go through the sifter. #vermicompost #vermicomposting #wormcastings #wormfarm #wo

Worm farming for beginners! I made this small tote DIY system and it’s been a lot of fun to run this! It just shows you can run a worm farm even on a small scale and still let it be productive. #vermicompost #vermicomposting #wormcastings #wormfarm #wormfarming
