An absolute ton of very valuable information in this video, especially for what I'm about to do!
With the way Michael Box explained everything, I think I'm pretty much up to date with what I need to do........... With reasonable confidence. But I'm sure I'm gonna have to go back and review.

Well, there were some fruits and vegetables on sale at the grocery store, so I made some worm food.
The cantaloupe was quite large and very sweet and juicy, so I saved a slice for myself
Large avocados were also on sale, so I got 4. I probably should have got at least one or two rhubarbs, but this was gonna be plenty.
I gave my new Ninja Mixer quite the workout. It's a damn good mixer! The resulting mixture, peel and all, had a very good consistency and was liquid enough to add my other dry ingredients.
The ninja made quick work of the pelletized organic alfalfa, organic chicken laying crumble and volcanic tuft for worm gut health and silica.
I got the mixture to roughly biscuit dough consistency and place them in quart freezer bags with as much material for one feeding.
I imagine these worms will work through this material quite quickly. I made some food similar to this with leaves from a defoliation and the worms absolutely tore it up quite quickly.
I'm going to change the feeding method just a little bit. I have a new crosscut Shredder for cardboard . And the hole goes a bit of shredded cardboard , then the feed, then more cardboard and worm bin material to cover it all up. The cardboard is for food and moisture control.
Hopefully this will provide for more nutrient dense worm castings. With using the fruits, I intend to hit heavy on the flower nutrients, but there is quite a bit there for vegetative nutrition also. The laying crumble Has sufficient calcium and sprouted seeds for various hormones.
It made 10 quart bags, but they weren't filled fully. They're all sitting in the freezer and tomorrow I will give the first feeding to the main worm bin. Before I'll feed, I'll try to harvest more worms to add to the other worm bin I started.
