Can You Farm Worms

It’s easy and inexpensive to build a homemade worm farm and it can reap benefits for the garden. Worms produce rich compost that can enrich garden soil or brew into a compost tea.

What is the fastest way to breed worms?

To breed worms, set up a plastic or wood bin with drainage holes at the bottom. Fill it with soil and compost bedding. Then, add your worms and feed them food scraps, paper, or manure once a week. After 3-6 months, harvest your worms by separating the soil and adding half of the worms to a new container.

How quickly do worms multiply?

Young worms grow rapidly and are ready to reproduce in about one month. Depending on growing conditions, worms may take up to six months to attain full size.
