Video 13: Feeding Your Worms Their Favourite Food - Making Use of Your Halloween Pumpkin
Nov 12, 2023
For those that pumpkin pick and get into the spooky Halloween trick-a-treat fun, you'll have a pumpkin to discard the day after October 31st. Pumpkin is a composting worm's favourite but feed in moderation. Pumpkin contains about 80% water content - yes, i've added the pumpkin into the feeding tray without absorbent carbon materials (newspaper, loo rolls inners) but for their next feed of pumpkin and other food waste I will add carbon materials to absorb the water content. It's important not to let the bedding etc become too moist.
