Nutrients Worms + Biotabs/Autopots? Anyone done this?

[milkmann]

As the title suggests, has anybody got any experience or thoughts on adding earthworms to my autopot containers using the Biotabs range, and a few extra amendments such as Kelp, Neem Meal etc, and just as I defoliate the leaves I can just leave them on top of the soil for the worms to eat etc?

Do you think the 15L containers are big enough? I know they're not idea, for a true 'no-till' experience, but might be better than no worms. And will they somehow find their way under the matrix disk and into the tray below?

Cheers!

Yep, adding worms if you use biotabs is fine and will add aeration to the soil as well as better transfer nutrients around in your medium. Did something like that five years back in an outdoor potted plant and it was really great smoke.

PS. I went fishing in the fall and used those suckers to catch some killer trout on the river. Then the following grow outdoors I had put the dead trout guts in my compost pile and grew some more lucious buds outside that's Year as we'll. It all comes full circle.

I am returning to organic grows this year, and Biotabs is most likely going to be my choice for convenience as well. I don't have time to prepare the super soil and let it brew for 60 days...biotabs work great.

Like your style dude. Proper recycling.

My mate met a guy in India who fed his chickens on newspaper, and his pig on the chicken’s shit! Haha. Apparently the bacon had no taste at all so you can obviously go too far with these things.
