Hi there
I'm starting up a new vege garden and have been preparing the soil and working compost (some from our compost bin and some multi-purpose stuff from the garden centre) in for a few weeks. I haven't seen a single earthworm - is that normal? Are they likely to be deeper than I'm forking at this time of year, or do you think there could be a problem with the soil? We moved here last year and there were box plants in the patch that I'm now using for the vege garden. Before that (I'd guess 10 years ago) there was a shed there.
Any help appreciated.
