 optimal temperature for worms + 18 C, range +5 C - + 29? C

on finnish site it says +5 C - +25 C

it's weird that people are so serious about this that they find out methodically the optimal growth rates and such. the first thing when i saw my worms was kääk! they were so creepy all my "save the planet, fertilise your plants!" thoughts went down the drain. :P

happy worming!

first i grew plants

now worms

where will i end up?

 

äitisuomennos: matokompostointi on hauskaa. mikset sinäkin?

ps. the white thing on the compost bin is expired modified cornstarch... i wonder if i'm not poisoning my worms? and i probably did the bin also wrong. can worms die of over eating? everywhere it warns not to feed them too much. :/
