GeraldtonWA Posted July 6, 2012 Report Posted July 6, 2012 I have a small shhet of glass on top of my worm culture, but when I remove it to harvest I find that the worms are mixed with earth, food and debris. It's hard to get a clean harvest. What is the secret?
forever_and_a_day Posted July 6, 2012 Report Posted July 6, 2012 how much dirt are we talking? a rise with water and feed with a pipette or something should solve the problem of a little bit of dirt. make sure the glass is just sitting ontop and not pushing into the media? i use plastic needlepoint canvas and a soiless culture so i can't help much :P
paul Posted July 6, 2012 Report Posted July 6, 2012 You could lay some plastic needlepoint canvas or just some fly screen over the soil, then place to food on that, then the glass lying ontop. This would create a simple barrier to keep the dirt off the glass.
CNgo2006 Posted July 6, 2012 Report Posted July 6, 2012 how about going soil less altogether? A lot of people have had a lot of success with the green rectangle dish wash scrubby things instead of soil.
