Worm Diet Part 2

A continuation from our first part on worm diet can be found here

Recently we decided to give our worms a better treat, and guess what we decided to feed the worms now?

Dragon Fruit Peels

Yeap! We were quite amazed to find that the worms actually eat the dragon fruit peels , of course we eat the fillings :) , rather quickly. We do hope that it was not because of they were bored of the normal diet though!

Some of you may think that your worms eat rather slowly, but we found out that they tend to consume food that are easily digestible. Dragon fruit skins are very soft and hence possibly very easily digestible by our worms. So in the mean time if you are thinking of what to feed your worms, try dragon fruit skin. Well the only problem would be that your grocery expenses may start to escalate!

So tell us about your experience in the comments section below! 

Till then,

Happy composting!

What to feed your worms?

Often many queries that we received from our customers would be, " What should we feed our worms?" Or " What waste will the blue worms eat the fastest?". We have already written an article over here but this time round this post will be a little more light hearted.

One of our worms' favourite diet would be red apples. As mentioned previously, " An apple a day, keeps a worm happy :)"

This is certainly not true if all our apples are eaten this way. 



For us, we always like to have the thought that no food shall go to waste and thus we feed mainly apple cores to our worm bin. We do believe that most average people, actually eat apples with their cores intake. After all, what is wrong by eating that way? We do get more worm castings and not to mention worm tea.
