Great news Phattaff, where are you getting your worms from...?

Sorry didn't see any other bargins (blinded by the wormery one), there's a voucher with the Can o Worms kit that i've got to send off to get me worms, I got it from the Lakeside Tesco but sorry it was the last one (think thats why it was reduced down so much they just wanted it gone).
But keep an eye out in any Tesco near you coz they sometimes reduce the items in all the stores.
All the best Phattaff

How to build a wormery - Dorset For You
This is a good link for a do-it-yourself wormery. A few years ago, I bought a few plastic dustbins and made a few - two for myself and some for friends. I live quite close to a wood, so there was no problem in stocking them up with worms. They do produce beautiful compost.

I meant to suggest that the worms seem to prefer a little alkaline added. I put the occasional handful of calcified seaweed in the bins.
