Tbh, ive accidentally grown plants i didnt mean to grow by simply throwing dead and rotting vegetation into castings alone.

Even without light the plants grew long and leafless, pure white in total darkness in a pile of castings i was mixing.

Coco coir is some of the very best medium there is. Ive never used it, but i hear NOTHING but praise from everyone who ever has. I hear it can contain bugs and don't know if its ph neutral or not, but ill be using it myself before long. Its on my list of "to do's"

Some in the organic community say if you get the worm casting ratio correct all you have to do is add water, but these guys add a lot more than that. (I've added nothing but water and teas to my gardens for years)If it were my crop, id mix up whatever the experiment required and grow a plant or two in there. That way you can grow your other plants with a proven recipe, the recipe you're using now, to ensure you get the bud you're after. That way your experiment doesn't cost you as much if you fail, not that i think you will.

But tbh, if all i had was those two ingredients, id sure as hell make it work one way or another.

 

Lol bonehead moment!

That will be fine, just remember, they LOVE that thick cardboard, melons and most of all, manures of all kinds!

 

Sounds like worm feast to me

I actually grow plants a few times a year specifically for chickens, rabbit and worms.

Bout to dig through my winter seeds tbh.

 

I feed the chickens any vegetables that are raw or cooked unless they're listed on my do not feed list, stuff like raw potato skins. Anything the chickens cant eat, like steak, i feed to the dogs. All of the chicken poo, rabbit poo, and some of the dog poo goes to the worm bins. Oh yeah, you can compost dog poo, but it really depends on a lot of things. You dont wanna go just dumping 30lbs of dogshit in a pile in there, because their diet isnt green enough, but mixed in with a bunch of green shit, ie, herbivore poo, it disappears with the rest of it.
 
I try to feed my rabbits and my dogs and worms varied diets, so that my plants get a plethora of nutrients from a broad spectrum. its been scientifically proven that what you feed your worms you feed your plants, which is why not all worm castings are created equal.

 

Then youll have some top notch shit

 

Hells to the yeah
