Tips
- Chop up food scraps - the smaller the pieces, the faster the worms will eat them. Some people even put their food scraps in the blender for rapid recycling.
- Start out with small amounts of kitchen scraps. Worms can process 1 cup of scraps per 1000 worms per day max.
- Your worm population will double every 2 months so long as you don't add too many scraps too soon. Worms won't breed in acidic putrid sludge.
- Within 6 months your worm farm will be at full speed processing 4L/week with 2 trays, 5L/week if you order an extra tray, and 5L/week if you order 2 extra trays.
