It has a total capacity of 80 litres but the large surface area means worms can process up to 2kg of waste per day. Secondly, I thought I had been draining the sump at the bottom, but it seems the tap had got blocked.

The other two are working trays, these have a mesh base to allow drainage down to the collector tray. Legs – sturdy legs lift the wormery off the ground helping to keep pests away and makes collecting the compost ‘tea’ from the tap easy.Overfeeding can cause all sorts of problems, decaying food is covered in mould, bacteria and fungii this is what the worms actually feed on but when it turns stagnant it becomes a different thing altogether and worms will be driven away so always keep the food layer to under 2″ or 5cm this may mean that you do not add any more for several days or even weeks it all depends on the time of year and the size of the worm population in the wormery, feed a little at a time and watch what the worms have done with the last feed, winter is a quiet time for worms. In this expert-tested product guide, we explain how a wormery works, what to look for when choosing your own and review several models in detail to help you choose the best wormery for you. Liquid drains through the upper trays to the collector tray where the drip free tap makes it simple for you to drain the compost ‘tea’ from the wormery as it is created (it can then be used as a nutrient rich liquid fertiliser that you can use, when diluted with water, to feed your plants). Kitchen scraps (teabags, potato peelings, eggshells and so on) are put in the top, and the worms convert this into nutrient-rich fertilizer.

Once you have filled this second tray with waste (again on a daily basis) then the first, lower tray will be ready for the vermicompost to be harvested. Conversely you shouldn’t add composters to your soil as they are not likely to survive when the soil dries (the exception to this is a heavily mulched garden). Fearing an early onset of dementia I asked my lovely partner Alex to read it through too, and he too can't see it either.Ideally, you should place your wormery in a sheltered, shaded spot, somewhere you can access it easily to fill it up and drain the liquid a couple of times a week.

Like most stacking tray systems it has a base with a tap to drain leachate, to this the legs are attached, the first tray has the worms and bedding, to this the kitchen waste is added, when full the next tray is added into which the waste is placed for the worms to move up into.It takes a while for the worms to migrate but once they have the bottom working tray can be taken out and the compost used.
