Hi Punks! I am wondering what would be the best option to do some eco waste recycling at home? I am living in a small flat and have a balcony where I am trying to grow some veggies and herbs. Lately I am getting targeted apps about worm farms that you can have either in your flat (because apparently they don’t smell?) Or on a balcony. Does anyone have experience with this? Or does it make more sense to simply compost? I think you can use bokashi as well to compost that has some microorganisms? I am wondering what would be the best option smell wise and suitable for smaller amounts of waste and space. If anybody has some experience to share I’d be grateful :)
I’ve been worm farming for over a decade. No issues ever. If you’re using a small worm farm, that’s where it gets tricky. What @ebikefolder@feddit.de says is probably more relevant on the smaller scale, I never worry about anything like that in a larger farm.
I wouldn’t make it indoor but I would happily do it outside if your temperatures are fair. Mine are about 2C-44C in the extremes.
How big is your farm? I think outdoors might not me an option for me because the temperatures can drop below zero.
Yeah, we move ours into our glass house over winter. I also made it an insulated jacket out of plasticky padded envelopes and duct tape 😀
It’s come through temperatures of -7C that way. The worms will all go deep and huddle to stay warm.
