Worm Cut in HALF

Tuesday, 31 May 2011 Posted by Deborah Stevens Category Vermicompost 0 comment

Let's debunk an old wives tale. Cutting a worm in half does not create 2 worms, instead you now have 1 dead worm. A worm will only survive being cut from it's tale to the 8th segment and then you have a shorter worm with a stunted tail.

My worm farming hobby began in 1999. I soon became amazed by the hard working wigglers eating my kitchen garbage and organic matter. I turned my hobby into a business in 2005. The health, vigor, color and taste of my fruits and vegetables have increased dramatically. My soil Biology has been improved and enhanced with the use of Vermicompost and Aerated Worm Tea.
