Now that temperatures are cooling down, it is time to refresh my in-bed worm composters.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣ I've been in bed vermicomposting for 2 1/2 years. I use them for composting all of my kitchen scraps - it is so convenient. The worms make the castings where they are needed, right in the beds.⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
Here's what I did to refresh them after the long hot summer:⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
 ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
• Cleaned out the bins - spread the remaining castings and compost around my beds. ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
• Shredded cardboard boxes
⁣⁣⁣⁣• Added shredded cardboard to the hole⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣• Wet it down⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣• Added some worms - these beds had worms previously, so I only added a few - I split one bag from @Arizona Worm Farm between 4 beds⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣• Added food scraps⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
• Topped with brown (something that used to be a tree) and covered (I use a ceramic tile) ⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
