How to Make an Organic Wormery

Harvesting - collecting the worm compost.

Obviously your wormery will take time to fill up with worm casts. Once they start to fill, remove the freshest material first along with the layer immediately underneath which contains most of the worms. Keep this separate as this can all go back once you have harvested the rich, dark material at the bottom, the worm casts.

If you are using a stacking system e.g. "Can-O-Worms" simply remove and empty the bottom container then place back on top of the wormery. The whole cycle then starts again.
