The only down-side to using my homemade castings was that I had tomatoes growing in everything -- and I mean EVERYTHING.I sell bait. Night Crawlers will die and a lot of dead ones could do harm. Belgium or European Nightcrawlers are surface dwellers and are fine at room temp with plenty of moisture. My red wriggllers aka manure or tiger worms do fine in warm conditions and some show up when I dump mix after harvest. Homemade castings are just too cool.
Mrs. Stool bought a pack of 'golden nugget' tomatoes for a snack tray and most of them ended up in the worm bin.
I've got a LOT of golden nugget tomato plants...

-- edit --
This started as a marigold in a half gallon pot but got outclassed quickly by the golden nugget...
