Has anyone made their own using worm castings? It looks pretty simple and a whole lot cheaper than buying a gallon from the guy at the market. Just wondering if anyone has personal experience.
Re: Worm Tea?
DH regularly makes compost tea and worm castings tea. It's super simple. You put the compost/worm castings in a bag (DH uses a grain/hops bag for brewing beer but I think you could put it in cheese cloth and tie a string on top to close it) and then put the bag in a 5 gallon bucket. Add water and the aerator. We have this but I've read online that you can use an aquarium pump. Let it brew for 12 - 24 hours and apply to soil/garden.
If you have chlorine in your water, let the pump run for about half an hour before adding the compost/castings.
Tired after a long morning of hiking and swimming.
