Worm composting directly in the garden bed simplifies the process of vermicomposting. Want to learn more? Head to the link for this post in my bio. If you live in the low desert, now is the perfect time to add them to your beds. In-bed vermicomposting solves the problem of what to do with the worms during extremes of hot and cold. For example, vermicomposting in hot weather places like the low desert of Arizona is difficult unless you bring the worms inside during the summer months. With in-bed vermicomposting, the worms burrow deeper in the beds during the heat of an Arizona summer and then emerge again in the fall. It’s been shown that worm castings in the garden help plants grow larger and stronger. They also get more and better-quality flowers, fruit, and vegetables. It can also increase a plant’s resilience to pests, drought, heat, disease, and other stress. #vermicompost #wormcastings #inbedvermicomposting #redwigglers #compost
