My 2 seedlings are about 2 1/2 weeks old. Great information guys. Thanks a bunch!!!

I hear aloe vera is great for cloning. Cut off some of your aloe vera plant and dip the end of your clone into the gel then plant it in your medium.

hahaha, good one Bose. Yes, women. They love to be loved, but they hate to be hated!!!

Ahhh, playing the waiting game. Hopefully soon she will show herself to you.

I have been trying to find info on an organic seedling feed. My seedling soil is made up of 1/3 parts ewc, peat and perlite and a bit of oyster shell flour, and they are in solo cups. Any suggestions?

Hey Grandpa, is that perlite in your pics? If so, how much do you add to your bins and what's the benefit?

Make sure you grind up your eggshells as fine as you can. Otherwise your bins will accumulate a lot of residual eggshells over time.

Wow, good job!!! Show us what those pretty ladies look like close up.

Have there been a few cloudy days where you are? She should perk up when the sun comes out. This will be your new hobby for sure!! Organics is he way to go!!!

Hey grease. Thought I would give the layering a try. Moistened composted birch leaves followed by a layer of crumbled horse manure with about 10 worms per level of manure. Filled up the 5 gallon bucket with 5 layers this. Gonna be interesting to see what comes of it.

Now that sounds like a great idea Wet. Thanks!!

Thanks grease. Would it be better to put the rabbit manure in my living soil and let the worms take care of it, or put it in my worm bins, or should I put it in my compost pile?

Went to my buddies today and got a couple buckets of manure. The small one is rabbit and the big one is horse. Rabbit is already somewhat composted and the horse is still kinda fresh. My question is what way should I use this to get the best benefits from it. Should I put them into my worm bins...

Feeding them on a schedule does not fit. They will let you know when they need food. I typically feed my worm bins about every 8 to 10 days or so. There is some fruit pulp sitting on the counter that I took out of the freezer this morning. Gonna feed it to the worms in my living soil by putting...

That will certainly do for the start. Make sure to have enough paper and cardboard in there for the worms. Its all about personal preference and what your gonna be using the castings for. Ain't this a cool site. I just put fresh bedding in my 2 totes the other day and I used wet cardboard...

WOW, that's a lot of worms per cocoon. I thought there was just 1 per. Thanks hyroot!!!

Found a ton of worm cocoons in my bins today and was wondering what the time line is for them to hatch into the miracle workers they are?

A question for you st0wandgrow. Do you use any type of leaves? Is there a more beneficial leaf?

Here's what grease said in another post. if you are aging whatever the soil is, for a long time (6 months or so), then wood chips are fine, but they WILL sequester a lot of nitrogen... if you are to do it that way i'd suggest putting them alongside with something relatively high in nitrogen...

Yesterday was a beautiful sunny day so I decided to see if I can get my worms to migrate to the new bins. New bins have about 40, 1/4" holes drilled in the bottom of them, and about 40, 1/8" holes around the top for ventilation. Got some cardboard boxes and tore it into smaller pieces. Then...
