If your Subpod smells, it indicates that food is rotting before the worms can eat it or there is not enough oxygen in the system.
Do not put intensely spicy foods into your worm composter, such as ginger or an excessive amount of citruses, as well as milk products, meat products, bones, oils, lard and other fats.
Creating quality composts takes approximately 2-3 months.
