Mixing red worms with i think night crawlers. Frist of all i have a manure bucket 36×14×12 full of fresh cow manure. I left it for six weeks to age in the garden no lid open to the elements. I had a look and there was heaps of red worms. I decided to make red worm composting. Broccoli box shredded paper , crushed up dry gumtree leaves and callisteom leaves and hand full cow manure. About 200 red wrigglers in broccoli box. Then i gathered about 200 night crawlers from side of the road where a lot of gumtree leaf litter is. Also put them into broccoli box with red wrigglers and put lid on box. Check on the worms see how there going and no worms in box except a couple of small red wrigglers. I am trying again this time i will try introducing alittle slower. And age the bedding materials bit older.
