Hi, /an/. I plan to start my first real garden soon, the cold days of winter are near over. I was thinking of making my own worm compost bin. Has anyone here ever done it? Is it hard or tedious to maintain? It seemed easy to me when reading it, would like to hear experiences though. I plan on digging up invasive species worms and using them as my little helpers.
Feel free to post your gardens, what you've harvested, tips, etc.
Worm compost bins are best red wrigglers.
just ordered a fake coyote for the yard
I expect it will scare the squirrels for about 2 hours before they start chewing on it.

Yeah I saw all the instructional pages said to use red worms, but why is it red worms particularly are the best to use? I can't find anywhere explaining it.

Other worms can't eat as fast, and like cooler temps. Really better to do it with them, you'll get much faster decomposition, otherwise it's actually better to forgo the composting worms and use heat from straw and manure(green stuff)
