Why add black worm castings to your fruits, vegetables, and flowers? The answer is simple, to improve soil fertility, decreases disease, plants become more resistant to pests, regulates plant nutrients, enriches the soil environment, and improve soil structure. All this adds up to healthier and more productive plants. In fact, it is the best soil amendment, without any harmful chemicals or synthetic materials.
Improves Soil Fertility
Black worm castings add a significant amount of humic acid into the soil, which has the amazing ability to stimulate plant growth. Humic acid encourages proper roots growth and development, by increasing microflora development. The more humic acid in the soil, the healthier the plants.
Decreases Diseases and Increases Pest Resistance
Black castings also contains humus which can decrease and almost eliminate many common problems such as powdery mildew and damping off. Humus also extracts toxins, harmful bacteria and fungi, while promoting the plant’s ability to absorb nutrients. It also increases the presence of microbes which prevents pest infestation.
Regulates Plant Nutrients
Humus rich soil helps make nutrients readily available for the plant to absorb. Increasing healthy growing plants and a bountiful harvest for years to come. It also has the ability fix heavy metals in organic waste.
Enriches Soil Environment
If the pH soil is too high or low, worm castings act as a barrier. This prevents extreme pH levels, enabling plants to absorb nutrients.
Improves Soil Structure
Mineral clusters from black castings are formed in such a way, it enables the soil to withstand compaction and water erosion. This is especially beneficial for sandy and clay soils. It also allows for water retention, ensuring plants have the water they need for healthy growth.
“Without the work of this humble creature, who knows nothing of the benefits he confers upon mankind, agriculture, as we know it, would be very difficult, if not wholly impossible.”
