55 Gallon Worm Compost Bin- Look at the wormery
/ @plantobsessed
This bin was made from cutting a 55 gallon food grade barrel in half long ways and screwing the open ends together to make a 6 foot long bin.
To see the previous video click here • 55 Gallon Compost Worm...
The bin lives in the cellar of my 200-year-old house. In the winter the furnace dries it out, and in the wet season the moisture leaching through the bricks makes the basement very humid. The current set up was started near the first of the year 2021 after the wormpocolypse. A rat was in the basement and all the bins had to be moved to totes and buckets with lids on to protect them. When the rat was ended, I added 4 or more of the in-progress bins/ buckets with the compost mix of red, blue and European nightcrawlers in them to fill the big blue bin. I continued to add ground leaves and food. Currently the bin is undergoing a refresh. I am harvesting the castings as the top of the bin dries and adding new bedding and food. Keeping the moisture even in the bin is difficult in the wet summer. I flip or fluff the bin to keep the air in the bedding. Back to the wedge method starting now.

2x bathtub wowm farms, 4+ years old. In the shade of an oak tree. With summer temperatures up to 35c° and winter down to -10c°. Cocoons survive the winter without a problem. That means we have 6 months of high production and 6 months of slow production. And since i found your youtube channel i'm using the wedge method and it works awesome! Thank you for your great work!

@PlantObsessed Год назад

That is great. What type of worms do you keep? I would think red wigglers would live at -10c for a while. Sounds like a great worm farm. Glad you like the wedge. 😃🪱👍🏼

@jarmovec Год назад

@@PlantObsessed We call them Californian red worm I think it is the same as red wiggler? I think they are native to Europe. But I didn't go deep in research. I have harvested them from manure piles from my neighbors and move them to my bathtub. As long the produce casting i am happy :). In The werthe middle of the winter whole bathtub was death-frozen all around the edge at least 4 inches (10cm) or more for than one month, and I was sure nobody survived. But in April they were back active and hungry :)

@derekzoeller2758 Год назад

A year in, red wigglers, started with 1000 red wigglers, using a 27 gallon tote. I now have another 27 gallon tote. New bin, feed every 4 weeks. Mature bin, every 2-3 weeks depending on amount of food. Add bedding every time. My focus changed to breeding to get my worn count up. I think it’s working. Thank you for all the tips and tricks!

@user-or7bl6vw3w Год назад

I started a year ago in June with a pound of what I thought was Red Wigglers but ends up Blues and Red wigglers. I now have thousands of worms in a very large tote. I have started a new bin that only has Red Wigglers in it and also a new bin with ENC's. But I want to thank you for your instructions on worm farming as it has helped me so much. My worms get to live in my laundry room which is 70 year round. I love the Worm Farming community as I watch most of the big farmers that are out there. Thanks again

@NanasWorms Год назад

And, one other consideration with regard to bin size is surface area. You are using most of Blue's 55 gallon size, whereas somebody with a tote of any size probably has approximately 6 inches of depth (i.e., do not fill their bins to capacity). Looks like you've been making salsa! ~ Sandra

@ivanasvobodova63 Год назад

I have mine for three years and 3 months. I have stacking systems, started with 2 and now bought a third (couple months back). I can see that the third “bin” is slower and it’s taking a long time for worms to populate it, they prefer to hang out in old ones. I started with approximately 100 red wigglers (unfortunately they are not generous with worms in European stores). Now I have over 1000 (my estimate).

@PlantObsessed Год назад

Here in the US we buy from people not stores. Do you have anyone that does that over there? My top is the slowest for me. 👍🏼🪱😃

@lindap9079 Год назад

I started my 1st bin last September. So, not quite a year old. I was producing more kitchen scraps than it could handle so over the past year I've started 3 more bins. They are all large Rubbermaid totes. I guess that makes them medium. I did not purchase worms. I dug them out of a friend's manure pile. I live in a mild climate, so I keep them on my covered porch year-round. I have not harvested any substantial amount of castings yet.

@PlantObsessed Год назад

I bet after a year you have quite a bit of castings. You can do a partial harvest to keep some open space if you don't need castings right now. 👍🏼🪱😃

@user-kx8kh9st7m Год назад

My 2 bins are baby bins. They are 5 months (150 days) and 4 months (112 days) old. They are bus bins and I think 7 gallons. I feed around every 10 days, but fairly small amounts. I also have more of the long-term food because my family eats that sort of stuff more.

You can speed up the maturity of your bin by feeding compost to the worms. Worms love compost.

@PlantObsessed Год назад

Yes, or using worm castings from another bin. 🪱👍🏼😀

@thenodiggardener Год назад

Apparently, my tower, with four trays is 100lt. This is 21 gallons, but it's not run in the same way as your CFB. That is something I find challenging having come to it after running huge heaps. I'd much rather have the space to run something large along side it, but that is mostly my own impatience, and not any fault with the tower. Also, I'm temperate Zone 8, so my worms are only ticking along, just trying not to die in the cold through 6 months of the year. Very different to working with warm heaps!

@PlantObsessed Год назад

Impatience is something I understand well. I had 23 bins at one time to help make more castings for summer. It was crazy. Winter is slow here in zone 5 too. Mine are mostly inside. So that helps a little. 😃👍🏼🪱

@fuzzytale Год назад

My bins are somewhere around 15 or 16 months old, I think, and have been moved into 2 stacked rubbermaid tubs from five 5 gallon buckets. All red wigglers. They seem to be doing remarkably well in our 100+ degree weather the last month, and go through food super fast. (I do have them stacked in a spot that never gets sun, have made them an additional 'tent' from empty buckets and a tarp, and feed them frozen food.) I don't actually have any real idea what my population is, as I started with a 5 gallon bucket passed off to me by a neighbor's son, which I split a couple times, then consolidated along with 2 buckets from a friend who decided vermicomposting wasn't for her.

i am trying to learn about worm farming, so knowing those little critters need to be in the bin helps. i am going to work up to a blue :) i already have the barrel, and i am at least six months out from beginning my journey into worm culture. i think i will start with a bin from the worm lady, i think you said in one of the videos you purchased from her once. and she has pure red wigglers, not a blue mix. i plan on adding worm chow as a supplement beyond composting scraps. what are the common pitfalls for the first six months, beyond overfeeding? what is common in the area of mold etc one will encounter, and yet need not worry about? being new to this, i expect to see many things, and i would like to not get freaked out over it, but know it is either good or bad, and thus how to deal with it. so i am doing my studies now so i will up my chances at success when i do begin. thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

@PlantObsessed Год назад

I took the same approach. I was impatient and expected too much. I stressed myself out about them. Keep the moisture even and don't feed until most of the food is gone. If it is cold or hot they won't eat as much. Don't worry about them so much they are pretty tough. 😃🪱👍🏼

@@PlantObsessed they were but today I’ve found one that’s a 5gallon bucket with a tap, is extremely wet and smells a bit funky. Wasn’t sure what to do as no room for dry bedding… so I got as many worms out and into coir that I could, and have left the wet bedding in plant pot saucers in the garden to air dry a bit and hopefully if I mix them about every few hours I’m hoping between the sun and the wind they will dry it a bit and stop it smelling too bad and being too wet. It’s a different type of system to all my others as it precomposted not coir all my others-breeder bin x2 and grow out bin x2 and the maze farm are all on coir. Will see what the next few days hold and if I can dry it out I’ll probably just mix the coir in with it so I don’t have to separate the worms again- I just don’t want the worms escaping while I try to dry it out a bit or them getting bothered while it’s drying.

@PlantObsessed 11 месяцев назад

If the goal is to get them big you need to feed chow and keep the population low by splitting the bin about every 2 months. For chow it works out to more frequent feedings less volume. When you look in on them after a few days, and the food is gone then it's time to feed again. Good luck. 🪱👍🏼😊
