oooh, Edd, can I have some please? If I have my own, where do I find them? are they in my compost heap? I had thought you needed 'tiger worms'. Are they the same? And do they need protecting in really cold weather, as I seem to remember reading somewhere? Can we have a whole vermiculture thread please? Puhleeeese?
Oh, and sorry, Igrow, I somehow missed the link at the top of your last post, Thank You, and you're not butting in, that's what a forum is for, I believe?
But therein lies my complaint! 'A complaint?', you all scream. 'YES', I reply. 'TMI'.
I don't have the space in my brain to store it all, or the room in my garden to use it all, or the hours in a day to read it all! The more I read, or ask, the more I learn and want to learn. And it's all here at the click of a button (or two)!

Yes please, Edd. Have tried hot composting, but never seem to have enough stuff all in one go. Still have some good stuff at the end but had hoped hot composting would be quicker. watching for these threads!

Sorry to butt in...
Regarding hair (not specifically dog) I have heard that it can be used to deter slugs but have not tried it.
iGrow,
Have heard that myself, will be watching closely when I try it for mulch. I'll let you know how it goes.

Artjak, I will do so, thank you. I'm a bit compost mad. Never ever got enough though, or enough room to make all I want!
Edd, I am waiting with bated breath for that new thread. Can you start it for raw beginners, please? I will be searching my bins now.

Thanks, Edd
Will look at those as soon as I have chance. Did I see you on the 'flooded gardens' thread?About what will break down in the floodwater? Thank you.
My resident robins love mealworms. Can I breed them? Easily? I will look at the link, just no time right now, having taken on the seed collection.
