Im a bit like you with chucking what ever I have to hand onto the garden and letting Mother nature take care of sorting out who gets what. I chuck on mushroom compost, worm wee, leaves, lawn clippings (lightly) compost, any rakings and trimmings, seaweed... And then wait and see what happens next! - Kara xxPractical Froghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05929264270672991301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-30818900915920751472012-08-31T13:15:31.606+10:002012-08-31T13:15:31.606+10:00Virginia,

Only the other day I was saying to myself that I have to do it soon. It's indoors in my living room, and the earth does seem to be quite compacted now. Hopefully I'll get to it this weekend. Thanks for the inspiration to do so.<br />Not so sure I'm going to find thousands of worms in my soil though.VirginiaChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17282569773671179047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1578069567609242972.post-86668956650969054472012-08-30T16:12:43.659+10:002012-08-30T16:12:43.659+10:00Did your pot have an undertray?

I always try to "rescue" any worms I find in pot plants because I'm just certain that they won't survive without more diversity and natural food/water/environment. I have noticed that if I put pots directly onto some soil (I sometimes do this when I sow seeds in a pot) that worms seem to flock to pots. I suspect they like the regular watering and richer soils in pots compared to hard old boring ground.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
