https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkVsnzyeLg4O8N44LH1qlIw/store I have finished baiting out my castings, so it is time to take the items that have not composted yet and combine them together into the leftovers bin.... again.  I found early on in my vermicomposting hobby that my impatience for the compost led me to sift the casting early and  use the left overs to start the next bin.  This was lucky, because by doing this I ensured that the new bin had all the beneficial microbes it needed.  This prevented what I originally saw as a lag phase where the worms don't consume at the same rate as the old bin.  It also gave a good starter set of cocoons and wisps for the population to boost.  This will mark the first time i have added the African night crawler left overs to the European night crawler, red wiggler blue worm left overs.  It will be interesting to see who becomes the dominant worm species in the bin. At the time of the video there are only wisp,cocoon and a few small juveniles of unknown species.
