Worm Tea Leachate

Do not confuse the excess moisture or liquid collected in the bottom of a worm bin as 'worm tea'. This leachate is the  undigested liquid and excess moisture that has passed through organic material that may contain pathogens or excess nutrients that may be harmful to plants. It is best to use this leachate on unwanted plants such as weeds.

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.
