Are you new to worm composting? This is my Ferme Du Moutta worm composter and my amateur wormery journey. I am learning as I go and would love you to follow Poppy's Pets and this playlist. Since making this video, I've read that bell peppers are toxic (but conflicting advice elsewhere says bell peppers are safe for worms), and I've discovered other mistakes that may have caused 4 worms to die - please watch my other videos, subscribe, comment about your journey (professional advice welcome). More information is on my website under the category Little Creatures.

I am new to worm composting and have already made mistakes. Four worms died, and although unconfirmed, it is possible they died from protein poison, otherwise called Sour Crop or String of Pearls. You will see worms looking unhealthy in this video, even in death. The cause is that foods fed to the worms may consist of protein levels that are too high, so important to strike a balance with calcium-rich food. Crushed eggshells are food that provides worms with calcium. My wormery is the Ferme Du Moutta / WormBox. Visit my website for starter packs and where I bought my composting worms.

I am learning by mistakes and would love to hear about your journey. Here are my mistakes: 1: Moisture - I did not give my worms enough and have since added more and the worms are happier 2: Air and oxygen - every few days I turn the soil 3: Bell pepper - I removed the red bell pepper as I read these peppers were toxic then later read the vegetable is safe to give to worms. It's best to remove the seeds to prevent germination though. Update April 2023: I have since included bell pepper in my worms' diet. 4: Potato - again, I read potatoes are toxic then found another website that said worms can eat in moderation. Update April 2023: I have reintroduced potato into their diet 5: Crushed egg shells - in video 2, I show your deceased worms and too much protein as the possible cause. Crushed eggshells help a worms digestive system and provide calcium to balance the protein. 6: Smaller food - worms have small mouths to cut food up into tiny pieces.

Credit to Anne for her suggestion. Blending safe food for your worms helps them digest food more quickly, especially as worms do not have teeth. Food can be stored in the freezer but ensure once thawed it reaches room temperature before feeding to your worms. I paid £15 from Argos for the Cookworks set but has increased to £28! You can buy the chopper only from Argos for £18 but suggest looking around.. Microbes: I am learning about this - but from what I understand, many microbes live in a worm's gut, which helps break the food down because blending it becomes a faster process. Microbes reproduce and live ones appear with any castings (although right now unsure what a microbe looks like until I look at Google!) You might find finer castings because of feeding worms blended food, which is positive too.

It's a general update about the wormery, what I removed to prevent blockage and too much moisture. I mention food I have added too, plus a BABY SURPRISE! Please watch to see the eggs. And did all my worms survive a 3 hour car journey? My next task: 1: To prevent death, I am removing some food. However, my worms do look healthy. Two points to remember when maintaining a healthy wormery: a) If hardly any food in the food waste tray, top it up with new food waste b) If the food waste tray is full, leave your worms to chomp through it I added more food before they chomped their way through the existing.

Fruit Flies: One way to get rid of fruit flies is not to add any more fruit to your worm bin, and feed them veggies instead. But if you do, then lime can help which you add every two weeks. Pot (white) Worms: Who mistook these for baby worms? It's an easy mistake. Pot worms enjoy living in a home filled with organic matter and a worm farm is perfect for an organic feast. Mine appeared in the tea collection tray of my French wormery (Ferme Du Moutta Worm Box https://amzn.to/3ske91N) and because they like wetter conditions, this tray is ideal for them. This is where I placed the pellets. Its worth noting that if pot worms appear then your composting aren't faring well in a changed condition in the bin. If you watched video 9, you'll see a pot worm. Overall, lime is good to have to hand for a number of reasons including keeping your bin smelling fresh. Lime is perfect as it changes the pH balance in your bin.

For those that pumpkin pick and get into the spooky Halloween trick-a-treat fun, you'll have a pumpkin to discard the day after October 31st. Pumpkin is a composting worm's favourite but feed in moderation. Pumpkin contains about 80% water content - yes, i've added the pumpkin into the feeding tray without absorbent carbon materials (newspaper, loo rolls inners) but for their next feed of pumpkin and other food waste I will add carbon materials to absorb the water content. It's important not to let the bedding etc become too moist. Please follow Poppy's Pets - my video contain a variety of pet-related videos and a playlist for Not Just Pets.

This video gives you an idea of food types you can add to your Bokashi bin. In fact, you can add anything except liquid. I run a worm composting bin alongside the bokashi so any food I cannot give to my worms, I top up the Bokashi. Bran is full of micro-organisims that will help ferment food waste and stop foul odours. The liquid can be drained off as you fill the bucket. Dilute before giving to plants. With Bokashi liquid you can use it neat to clean drains or sinks too - I'll be testing this in a later video Buy the Bokashi Bins in my video: https://tidd.ly/3FBRPnP Green Living: https://poppys-pets.com/category/green-living/ Worm Composting playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrb7hyb8JPwqu-lcXA4fNPKJQUEYZJweW Get £2.50 off Bokashi & Worm Composting at Wiggley Worms: https://i.refs.cc/YhNjn8A7?smile_ref=eyJzbWlsZV9zb3VyY2UiOiJzbWlsZV91aSIsInNtaWxlX21lZGl1bSI6IiIsInNtaWxlX2NhbXBhaWduIjoicmVmZXJyYWxfcHJvZ3JhbSIsInNtaWxlX2N1c3RvbWVyX2lkIjoxNzc0NjE1ODc2fQ%3D%3D Disclaimer: This post contains an affiliate link - this does not cost you any more money.

Composting worms will not survive in temperatures below 4 degrees Celsius. In some parts of the UK, the temperature will dip lower so now is the time to consider keeping them warm. It's worth noting that worms will continue activity in the bin but will slow down with temperatures below 10 degrees Celsius. 1: Storing your worm bin: Shed Garage Outbuilding Sheltered corner of the garden 2: Keep your worm bin off cold floor: The Ferme du Moutta has wheels so is off the floor. If your worm bin doesn't, then consider standing it on polystyrene, bricks or wooden blocks. 3: Storing a worm bin outside. My bin was outside last Winter, even when the temperatures reached 4 degrees Celsius. Worms will burrow and move to the central interior or middle trays. My worms inside the Ferme du Moutta survived but the odd escapee froze and I found them on the cold ground next morning. If outside, consider wrapping the exterior with old carpet or bubble wrap but DO NOT block ventilation holes. Some layer the interior with an old jumper - try your local charity shop. Stuff with cardboard and / or straw.

Composting worms suit the French wormery or a DIY wormery. In this video, I thought I'd look at the types of worms I have, which were bought for me as a gift along with the French wormery. if you know different, please comment. I started my wormery around February 2023 and by April they were reproducing. As the video shows, they continue to reproduce during the Winter months in the UK, giving birth in a few weeks. To prevent overcrowding, I'll be starting a large DIY bin which I'm calling the cost of living bin.

The rain has been relentless in the UK so this month we are looking at how the worm bin is doing. 1: In videos 20 & 21 I emptied the working tray but didn't sieve for castings. Watch and see why. 2: In video 7 I use a sieve and the content achieved is amazing and perfect for feeding plants or using as potting compost for new growth. 3: In video 19 it's housekeeping time for my French wormery #shorts : Burrowing compost worms: https://youtube.com/shorts/ulVxaDU4FYk?si=bX4pkZ7nzUn6dccD Christmas: https://youtube.com/shorts/zOvQfpUHUoU?si=z3vUGsFVAT-uEs0k https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLrb7hyb8JPwrmWHXRYHmY7L8zPGo3nbEB&si=c85K1Cwad3OJewKc by Step Worm Bin playlist: Rain direction can cause worm bins to flood: https://youtu.be/X-YDRrkCkdk?si=1jb7tMbSMrzpz2_v Gousto - recipes and ingredients delivered to your door - I always add the offcuts of veg to my worm bin and as show in my Step by Step worm bin, I recycle the paper contents and ice bags.
