Hi Gaia, Those pictures are all of the same worm and you mention "a few" worms that don't look healthy - do they all look like that? It doesn't look like obvious protein poisoning to me, and the fact that there are so few worms in trouble makes m...

Hi Mike - I really don't want to stir the pot here or make you think I'm plotting against you or anything (neither of which are my intention), but when I go to Vermitechnology I see a secure "https" URL. Apart from that, the owner of VTU is Larry ...

Yeah, I'm a little confused by that as well :-) That URL actually re-directs to someone else's website (Bruce "The Worm Expert" Galle's 'Worm Composting Blog'). The plot thickens! :-)

Hey Bentley, Love your site. I tried to comment here but got a spam block message. http://www.redwormcomposting.com/gardening/gardening-with-red-worms-additional-thoughts/
Anyway, this is my comment:
So it seems from what I have read that wet enough for worms is too wet for the garden. And there is really no way to reconcile the two. I wanted to go with raised beds and EFs because in North Carolina I felt the worms would survive the mild winters. I will still use the vermicompost in the garden, but keep the worms inside.

Hi everyone - apologies for the fact that I haven't been more responsive. I'm having a hard time keeping up with comments/emails from my own site, and am even worse when it comes to neglecting this great site.

Please DO send me an email: bentley@redwormcomposting.com if you have any questions etc. I can be a little slow to respond, but definitely faster than here. haha :-)

Thanks!

B
