I don’t know much about vermi composting, but I am thinking of giving it a go.
Does anyone have a good resource, knowledge, or recommendation on where to
start? My thoughts were to get a couple metal grated waste baskets, a bunch of
earth worms and put one in each of my raised garden beds. Or should I run an
experiment and do one bed and not the other? What are its benefits?
Downsides(rodents,possums for instance)? Guidance is appreciated.
I toss my scraps in a pile on the ground and whack it with a shovel every now and again to flip it…
I have crickets and centipedes living in it which is great cause that’s it and the centipedes kill practically anything else that tries to live in it.
Honestly I would love to do the tiered buckets and collect the liquid and all that but compost can really be done with 2 wooden boxes in a spot in your yard and a window screen for sifting when you want to use it.

Its just controlled rotting anyways.
