Worms, worms, wooorms

[nizmoKush]

ok all this started at looking at videos and looking for a different style of growing towards the organic side I guess. So my question is will it be a good idea to add worms to my 5 gallon fabric pots and feed some teas like popcorn sprout tea and other one i forgot atm ( and of course like egg shells and other stuff for the worms).. as well add some clover mix on top..

I'm still researching about this. I don't really want to have a worm bin where I currently am. I would like to add the worms to the pots and make them a no till style kind of thing so I don't have to keep buying more soil ( this what primarily wanted to try worms so I could re use the soil).. maybe go up 7gal fabric pots but idk about that.

Any input is highly appreciated, trying to learn new things to keep the mind moving.

Well I just ordered 100 worms smallest pack I saw online. I'll have 4 photo plants for this grow. I have a giant zkittles clone (@MegaBuds ) And mandarin cookies bagseed clone from a friend. Those are couple weeks old i think. I will start to germ 2 blueberry cookies from @Dinafem-Mark which I'll have its own thread later..
I'll order some other stuff as well soon

Interesting premise?

This is the mandarin cookies bagseed

This is the giant zkittles I cloned from a plant that died outside. I dipped two clones in a fresh aloe vera that I had cut and then went to a cup of water one was dry with a hole then bottom cup had a bit of water. It took about 7 days for it to root.

Feed them little fuggers and they'll help feed your girls. Get some straw, not hay, to cover the top of your soil and keep the top more moist so your worms will be happy and work in that area. Pull the straw back to feed your worms by top dressing and cover back up. There's lots of things you can feed them that's also good for you cannabis......alfalfa meal, malted barley(sprouted whole barley grain), sprouted corn........ect. I feed my worms, in the bin and planter, an organic, non-GMO, non-medicated, no hormones chicken laying crumble....NOT pellets. They love it! I've made veggie smoothies with the fan leaves and malted barley. Be creative! I had some extra cantaloupes from the garden that got too ripe before eating them. I halved them and put them on top of the soil........................feeding frenzy orgy!
Bigger pots tend to do better and easier to keep the worms happy. Red wigglers work the top of your soil. The Africans work the deep soil. The reds work best in a LOS.

I’m in buddy! JUST SO U KNOW U NEED ROCK DUST ON THE ASAP!!!! The worms need it to be able to digest their food! Can also use like egg shells crushed in a coffee grinder which also adds calcium but u need to get the membrane out from inside the shell 1st!

 

[nizmoKush]

Yes rock dust getting orderd friday. And gonna crack some eggshells right now. Don't have a coffee grinder but ill see how to crush it without it.
@TxRebel/Mark I was seeing that also crushing charcoal would help like bio char does ( from what i read same thing different presentation, of course starting material is different)
