A friend is wanting to know about wormeries. I have checked on line and there is a lot of general information. However, I just wondered if anyone on here has one and if so any tips please that I can pass on. |

If the gardening posts on the hobbies section is still used they may know as wormeries are used for help in composting. |

They seem to be naturally attracted to compost heaps, don’t they Pat! |

worms which turn up in compost heaps are red worms so presumably only live in that environment. Earth worms turn the soil - I've never seen an earthworm in our comost. |

I used to have one but in such a small garden I didn’t really need to compost. The liquid is good for feeding plants but got thoroughly told off when I offered someone else a bottle of worm wee. Apparently worms don’t wee :-S |

Thanks all. I deliberately didn't put it on the hobbies thread as it is very under used these days. I will pass that facebook reference on Island thank you. I thinks she knows what they are used for but rather wanted to hear from someone who actually had one, how good they are etc. |
