How Your Wormtopia Works
Your Wormtopia is a multi-story worm bin that automatically separates food scraps from finished vermicompost. You'll start by putting redworms, bedding and food scraps into the bottom tray. When the lower tray fills, begin putting scraps in the next tray up. Once the worms finish the food in the bottom tray, they'll begin to migrate upward into the tray above. When they've left the bottom tray, you can empty the finished compost, replace it with new bedding and rotate it to the top. Keep replacing bedding and rotating trays so your worms will always have something to eat, and you'll have fresh compost. The drainage tray collects the liquid which drains through the bin, called "worm tea." This "tea" is a wonderful liquid fertilizer for your houseplants or garden; mix it with equal parts of water before using.
Since worms can fall into this drainage tray, put a small amount of shredded paper in the tray so they can migrate upward again. Once your Wormtopia is ready, you'll be able to relax as your redworms do the work.
