Well i have a friend that has worms pesticide from egg shells leftovers and other organic materiall. Doyou think its a good idea to mix 1liter of this worms pesticides with my soil for vegetables and my slow realease organic nutrients i bought all these in a 11 lt pot. Or is it too much and i will end up burning it

OMG!!! Hahahahahahahaha, man you got me on that one YY. Now I can't stop laughing and I'm out of med to quiet down! Dammmmit!
 
Wel i think yes is the process that you put lwftovers with worms thay eat it and tou take their castings and mix it with soil
 
I thought I was going to learn a new word, LOL
I just run worms in my soil, they do their thing and all is good (I dont use perlite, perlite kills worms)
 
Sure worm farming is big business. You need air and good drainage first off. No matter what matter of soil it's got to have air.;)
 
I'm curious as to why you believe perlite is harmful to worms? I've been recycling my old potting soil through my bins that is loaded with it and haven't seen any adverse consequences. Before I began doing it I ran through the internet and couldn't find anything to suggest it would be harmful.
 
I worked at a worm farm when i was a kid. I was amazed at how much money was generated by selling the wriggly little buggers and their soil.
 
Haha not sure what you mean by worm pesticide but? I use worm castings and yes it’s a pest repellent. The castings I just got are loaded with beneficial insects. My tent is completely full of beneficials right now. I will be posting with a few beneficial insects I have found on my leafs and pots and also some outdoors. Some can be mistaken as being the enemy but they are your best friend in the garden.
 
crucialbunny The sharp edges cut the worms, the cut eventually causes infection and death. There is info out there on this, I can tell you that with perlite my worms are always dead. The balls might be ok (no sharp edges), but I also think perlite causes PH fluctuations and to these my grow this year has no perlite.
 
Thanks Rwise. I don't want to do any harm to my worms. I was devastated when I lost an entire bin to heat. Right now they seem to be thriving but I'll have to rethink things for next year.
