    Andrew - Thank you for this video. I noticed someone mentioned the strength of your pump. I watched a channel from the Urban Worm Company (Steve Churchill - owner & Troy - the tea expert) and they stated that your air pump should produce at least 5 litres per minute of air output for a 5 gallon container. Also, a brew creates bacteria and fungi. The bacteria feed the protozoa. Also, 3 cups of worm castings, 1 TBSP of fish hydrolysate and 1 TBSP of humic acid per 5 gallon container to promote fungal activity. Also, never use an air stone because it is VERY difficult to clean properly which can create anerobic bacteria in your next brew. Have a blessed day Andrew! Anthony

    Ahhhh sunchokes.... the love I may divorce... delicious, very healthy, a beautiful plant and easy to grow... BUT EXTREMELY INVASIVE. I have planted them in the ground and they spread like wildfire, even went out of the garden bed and under my driveway and destroyed some of it. So I am now trying to kill that area, first with herbicide and now smothering with 4 layers of thick plastic construction tarp covered with mulch... basically smothering them, we shall see how that goes. No you cannot just dig them up, impossible.... you will not get all the tubers. I am trying pots now, big pots, but they grow so fast I think the pots will crack open soon. I like this persons method, I think I just planted too many at once.... will try his plant one and harvest later.... good luck, let me know your method.

    My experience with spent coffee grounds in composting is as a major source of green, Carbon-nitrogen ratio around 1:20, pH is 6-6.5 so ideal. Looked at cardboard as a major consistent source of carbon. But issue is time cost of sorting. So just use diversity of carbon; wood chip, spent hay, seasoned manures. Trick is break it down as much as you can, turn often at thermophilic stage (microbes heating) and introduce your physical composters after this to balance out the compost. Takes 6-12 months to make great compost. Half science, half commonsense. Bit like winemaking ?

    Hello. I’m in south west Florida and have winter container garden plants and then have to change everything completely over to different set of summer heat tolerant plants. So my soil gets moved around a lot! Lately we've already been hitting temps that feel like its over 100 degrees in the shade. The garage is even hotter. Is it even feasible for me to do a worm bin down here? If so, how do you know how many worm bins to have for a backyard container garden? I would love to do this but not sure if I can.
