Have you bought worm castings before?

[KD]

Worm castings from green hand organics always seem to contain both worms and cocoons....

@GHO I've looked on your site a few times. Can you ship worm castings to me here in the Canary Islands with worms n cocoons in it? I promise not to call you on Instagram naked again if you do

I can get castings to you in bulk mate but they're not mine unfortunately. I have a source in Europe and they're ok but I've not seen cocoons in them. The half nekked call was unexpected

Okay cheers mate lol I don't need bulk stuff anymore cause what I wanted to do isn't possible at the moment. Gutted :(

I use a UK company called "elixirgardens" on ebayUK for mine. And, indeed, lots of organic goodies, Epson salts, volcanic rockdust, alphalaha for example. Great quality every time.

Good price, it has worm eggs in it, and often live wrigglers as well, moist not sodden.

I can't state whether they deliver to Canaries though, especially post-brexit and with it being a living, organic compost, but try contacting them by email to find out.

I'll check them out if my worms don't turn up okay. I'm dreading getting a bag of dead worms

Was just havin a reed KD thinking what does this stuff look lik so googled "worm castings"

Yep worm poo........yh seen that before ....lol

But did come accross this bit of info ............

"Another impressive benefit is the way it naturally repels insects. The digestive system of earthworms produces an enzyme called chitinase. This enzyme is a degrader of chitin, the substance that comprises the exo-skeletons of most insects. When used properly, worm castings help to repel chewing and sucking insects like aphids, whiteflies, and hard-shelled plant bugs. If an insect feeds on the leaves of a plant that has absorbed the chitinase, its stomach will soon begin to dissolve, and death will come quickly. "

Good to know

Yeah they're amazing little critters. Their poo is supposedly the best fertiliser in the planet.
