Creating quality composts takes approximately 2-3 months.
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.
It is important to maintain the level of waste in the lower trays of the wormery as the waste is reducing.
This is not needed.
The amount of food that worms can eat depends on the size of your worm bin and the number of worms you have. As a general rule, worms can consume about half their body weight in food per day.
Normal earthworms, also known as "garden worms" or "lob worms," are not typically suitable for composting.
Maggots are the larvae of flies and usually gain access via eggs laid on the food scraps you put in.
