Something is going on with my blog and FB causing my previous blogs to disappeared from FB. Because this blog refers to last week’s blog, entitled Depression, Healing, and Balance, I’ve included a link to it here.
Here are some pictures of the Worm Hotel to go with this podcast, beginning with one of the hotel itself:
It definitely looks more Skid Row than upscale. But it’s more than 10 years old, plus I have neither an outside faucet nor a sink in my basement and draw the line at thoroughly scrubbing it in outside and out in in my tub.That leaves hauling buckets of water outside which takes enough time and energy that I focus the bulk of my efforts on keeping the inside clean.
The pictures below show the difference between the mixture of fresh garbage and shredded paper in the top floor, its semi-converted state on the 2nd, and then the final product when most of the worms are done with it. Eggshell fragments remain which are a good source of nutrients for the soil. Not sure about those pieces of avocado peel but I imagine they’ll eventually decompose when added to the soil.
Here’s the scene of the meltdown post-clean-up. In the second picture you can see one adult worm and a couple babies I missed, but then later liberated.
