Though many big box stores now carry natural soil amendments, the quality is often compromised. As worms digest organic material, it refines the nutrients into the most usable form.
“Vermicompost may have up to a 1000 times higher microbial population than normal compost. Compost piles break down materials using bacteria that thrive in high temperatures. These high temperatures kill off some of the microbes. But with vermicompost, waste is broken down aerobically at moderate temperatures. This permits a much wider spectrum of microorganisms to develop in the final product. It is these microbes that can convert nutrients in the soil to a form that is more readily absorbed by plants,” NC Worm Farm News.
