I use worms in all my plants all the time. Here's the deal though. Nightcrawlers are not good choices, mostly because they are deep burrowers(18+ inches under) and they just get too big to keep in a pot. Red worms are the way to go. they are smaller, burrow much shallower, reproduce faster and eat more! I bought a 20$ "culture" from a worm bin supplier and quickly had enough to supply our myriad of houseplants and my garden.
We also keep a worm bin to keep populations up. if a pot stops showing signs of activity we just add more worms and food. |
