Plants take up nutrients dissolved in water through their roots. The best way to provide these nutrients is as a liquid feed, as they are already dissolved in water and the plant can take up the feed quickly with little waste. Worms are good for the garden, so attracting them is beneficial PLUS did you know :-

• Worms can eat their weight each day.
• An earthworm normally measures between 9 & 30cm!!!!.
• When worms tunnel deeply they bring subsoil up  mixing it with the topsoil improving drainage and fertility.
• Earthworm slime contains Nitrogen which plants love. The sticky slime helps to hold clusters of soil particles together in formations called aggregates.
• Earthworms can lose segments but if cut in half you do not get 2 worms!!!

Want to add worms to your garden? – we sell NATIVE Composting Worms, which you can add to your garden / compost heap / wormery.
