container veg growing+worm compost?

[tulip]

hi everyone,

i've had a can-o-worms for years and have a plentiful supply of worm compost.
has anyone successfully used pure worm compost alone in pots to grow veg? would it be too rich?, if i can use it - which veg would it be best for? also - could i use it for starting seeds? if i can't use it alone in pots and wanted to use it as a feed boost - should i mix it through with the other compost or put a layer at the bottom when planting?...or add it later on as a top dressing???????

any thoughts, advice, experiences - it would be great to hear..

thanks
tulip

Am pretty sure that it would be far too rich, I use mine as a soil improver but seem to remember reading something about how you could make your own compost by mixing with coir and something else to make potting compost quality out of it.

thanks - i'd forgotten about using coir - seems like the best option.
