I removed the carrot chunks from the freezer, along with a whole carrot I decided to add to our experimental bin as well. I chose one of my basement bins that [...]]]></description>

I myself have toyed with the idea of growing vetch as an N-rich material for my worm beds (and composting systems in general), but have always worried about it getting out of control.

		<description><![CDATA[My recent focus on &#8220;optimizing&#8221; waste materials for my Worm Inn and WF-360 systems has inspired me to set up a fun little experiment. In a sense, this could be considered the replacement for my &#8220;Particle Size Experiment&#8221; &#8211; but the cool thing is that it&#8217;s much simpler, and more-easily monitored. The basic idea here [...]]]></description>

The worms have done very well with this food, so I certainly had no qualms about adding even more today &#8211; 1.91 kg (4.21 lb), to be exact. The difference [...]]]></description>
