Vermicas is one of the best fertilizer for plant..

it consist of good bacterias that can help your

plant have a good quality of texture. Vermicast contains 40% more Humus than compost and
Humus is the fundamental building block of soil. you dont need to use chemical. It is made with
cow manure and it takes about 18 months to 2 years to completely vanish under the hungry
mouths of millions of red composting worms. this releases slowly to fertilize and strengthens
the body of your soil. this is a growers that know what they're doing, they need to produce
healthy plants in a timely fashion. The bacteria in worm castings are one of the few things that
can naturally break the Nitrogen bond, giving plants rare soluble Nitrogen that they can easily
absorb. Once your soil is strong and virile, you can simply water with easy to make vermicast
tea to supply nutrients. The micro organisms also provide hormones which boost the plants
immune response, making for larger and stronger specimens. Organic material thats been
broken down until it is resistant to further change, Humus is what holds and transfers water
within the soil structure Vermicast is one of the only certain ways you can fertilize without man-
made chemicals, all the Nitrogen, Potassium and Phosphorus plants need to live is made by
Mother Nature herself. to make a vermicast, you must:

Set up a feeding system.

Wind Row System. Place food on the right hand side of the row and keep it moist. Scrape
vermicast off the opposite side because the worms will gravitate towards the direction that you
feed them on. Therefore you are able to remove the vermicast from the left and it won't
contain any of the worms.
Pond System. Start at the bottom-15 centimeter (5.9 in) compost. Keep adding 15 centimeter
(5.9 in) compost at a time till pond is full. Remove whole pond to wash.
Wind Rows Undercover. Food is placed on front and kept moist. Vermicast is scraped off the
opposite side. Feed from the front, worms keep moving forward so what you remove from the
back won't contain any of the worms. This is usually done in sheds and on a smaller scale.
Washing Worms. This step occurs more so in the pond system however some worms are taken
in the wind row system during the collection of the vermicast. Vermicast and worms mixed
together in a tank of water, it is stirred, the worms are separated to the outside. Once
everything is mixed up, the vermicast is suspended in the water and the worms disperse to the
outside of the tank which are then caught in the nets.

Catching Worms. Worms are caught and placed in into buckets.

Sieving Out Undigested Compost. Undigested compost is taken out with any worms that are
left over. There may also be worm eggs which will need to be taken out as well.
Collecting Vermicast. Vermicast settles towards the bottom of the tank and water drains off.

Leave the vermicast to dry out.

Worm Wash. Liquid left over-can be used as liquid fertiliser.

Worms After Wash. Undigested compost and the worms are placed on a netting on top of fresh
compost. The worms will move into the compost leaving the undigested compost which you
can then remove.
