what do yoi mean by feeding the worms fabric?
I have a worm bin! The brand is worm cafe, but most of them are pretty similar. I've used DIY bins as well. The reason I switched to a worm bin is because my knees are garbage and I don't have to bend down for this one.
I take parts of fabric that I cannot use and snip them off the main bit. I only have one piece of tiny fabric that qualifies at the moment.

Then I snip them into fabric confetti(easier on the worms, fungus, and other critters if it's smaller).

And then I sprinkle the confetti in the worm bin.

It takes about 2 months for the worms to eat it. Beetles are faster but unpredictable. I let beetles live in the worm bin, but I don't purposely add beetles. I didn't see any beetle larva this time so full credit to the worms right now.
You can do the same with almost any organic based fabric or paper. A compost pile will break down cotton as well, but I'm unsure how long it takes. I think my old pile used to take 4-6 months during the warm seasons.
A DIY bin plan is available at:

Didn’t know about the usefulness of worm juice, and no, you don’t have to kill any for it!

y'all I slightly fucked up with the worm bin
one of the things you don't want is too high a moisture level and unfortunately, I wasn't keeping an eye on things and the moisture was so high it was literally dripping off the lid. Whoops! Little wormies were trying to escape!
So yesterday I took a larger drill bit and drilled a bunch of holes into the cover, and added a thick layer of ripped up cardboard. Things look muuuuuch better today and there are no more attemped-escapees, so I think we'll be ok lol
But wow I did not plan the ventilation well enough!

The Wonders of Vermicomposting: A Comprehensive Guide
A Comprehensive Guide to Earthworm-Based Waste Management
Vermicomposting is a cutting-edge and environmentally responsible method of managing organic waste that recycles organic materials into nutrient-rich compost by using earthworms’ natural processes. Due to its effectiveness and sustainability, this practice has become more and more popular as a means of turning garden waste and leftover food into useful resources. We will examine the foundations of vermicomposting in this blog, with an emphasis on important ideas like earthworms, worm castings, vermicomposting bins, red wiggler worms, and the recycling of organic waste.
Tumblr media
Understanding Vermicomposting
Vermicomposting is one of the many methods of traditional composting that uses earthworms to speed up the breakdown of organic waste. By providing a favourable environment for these worms, organic waste is more efficiently broken down, resulting in high-quality compost.
Tumblr media
Earthworms: The Unsung Heroes
Earthworms are central to the vermicomposting process. These remarkable creatures are natural decomposers, feeding on organic waste and transforming it into valuable compost.
Role of Earthworms in Composting
Earthworms consume organic waste and break it down through their digestive systems. As they feed, they excrete the waste in the form of worm castings, which are rich in nutrients and beneficial microorganisms. This process not only reduces the volume of waste but also enhances the quality of the compost produced.
Types of Earthworms Used
While numerous forms of earthworms can be used for composting, red wigglers (Eiseniafetida) are the most typically used. They are ideal for indoor and small-scale composting due to their high feeding and reproductive rates. Other species, such as European night crawlers (Eiseniahortensis) and African night crawlers (Eudriluseugeniae), can also be employed, depending on the composting conditions and requirements.

"Top Vermicompost Fertilizer for Thriving Indoor Plants: Boost Growth and Health Naturally"

also I FINALLY harvested the compost from the lower tray! It was a lot more than I thought-- filled up the entire small bucket I had set aside for much more future compost.
I followed the instructions that came with my Worm Factory 360 as best I could.
I made sure not to feed them for a few days to have them go through what was left as much as possible.
I moved the lower bin to the top and stirred once an hour for 7 hours with the overhead garage light on the whole time. Though I found that worms were starting to pop up and explore in the last two. so it might only need like 5 hours instead.
I made up a new batch of substrate (coco coir, shredded paper, and minerals, though I should have added perlite as well, I'm realizing now) and added just a little bit of food scraps once I had collected all the compost.
I also left open the tap at the bottom to increase air flow and prevent it getting soggy. I hadn't done so originally since moving everything from my old bin which had been quite wet. Hopefully this will help moving forward.
