Basic tip for gardening with worms, worms and more worms

Worms are the gardeners best friend, working away tirelessly every day to improve the soil.  I still get excited when I'm digging in my garden and see them trying to wiggle their way back down under the cool, dark soil after being disturbed.

Don't under estimate these little creatures they are invaluable in the garden, they provide nutrients and naturally break up the soil.  Gardens that have not been looked after and become barren don't usually have many worms in them, so how do we get them back.

Simply buy then from your garden centre, most sell worms in boxes, usually marketed for establishing worm farms, but you can also put then straight into the soil, I do.

Tip 4:

Purchase 1 box of worms, usually come in boxes of 1000s (I buy mine from Bunnings).

Divide the worms into as many bundles as you want.

Dig holes throughout  the garden, don't forget the pots, and pop them in with a small amount of food scrapes, cover with soil.

Be patient as they silently work away establishing themselves in your garden.

Happy gardening
