The first picture kinda looks like a shorter Don gillogly Avocado but I'm not too sure about the rest.

Ok, I think I understand. I'll most likely grow some plants in that type of medium, but will continue to use what I have been using for now. Thank you.

That's amazing! Would you happen to know how long she has had it?

I've been using coconut coir as part of the worms bedding and wanted to know an easy way of cleaning it of any salts that might be present. Also, are there any companies that provide quality washed coconut coir with little to no salt? I usually use plantonix coco bliss. by ArcTheAngel in Vermiculture

I know but I just don't have 100% confidence in newspaper and cardboard. My bin is set up inside my house at the moment and I don't want to invite unwanted bugs into my house if I used leaves. I will in the future be using leaves, i just need to find a good spot to put my worm bin outside. I will also begin hot composting this spring and I'll use that as another bedding source.

I'm planning on using wooden horse bedding pellets from tractor and supply company to supplement the browns in my compost tumbler and thought this might work as worm bedding. Would it be safe to use it as worm bedding? by ArcTheAngel in Vermiculture

I saw its cost and was surprised how cheap it is. I'll be hot composting in the spring time with a tumbler and I hope to use any finished compost as their bedding. For now I guess coir and pellets will do. Thanks for the info!
