Can worms be added to my compost to speed up the decaying proc?
I am new to composting and am hoping to speed up the process by using worms. I have a 62 gal tumbler that mainly contains horse manure and maybe 1 lb of kitchen scraps…how many worms (how many pounds) do I need for effective composting? Also, can I keep adding kitchen scraps to the bin or do I need to wait until the compost is complete and start over?
new horse manure will kill your worms ,you need to break it down a bit before adding worms. add some garden soil to your compost and it contains larval worms they will grow when conditions are right.
