Using Your Garden Tower

The Garden Tower planter works on an aerobic (with air) composting principal, so light, fluffy soil is best. Issues can arise from over-compaction, either in the soil column or in the compost column. Straw, grass, leaves & coir are good bedding for worms and should periodically be added directly in the compost column to avoid compaction.

Start with at least 250-500 composting worms for the center compost tube. Add at least 25-50 earthworms into the soil column.

A general watering schedule during the growing season is 4-6 gallons of water every 2-3 days. That being said, this will vary for everyone, and we recommend watering with a container instead of a hose to avoid over-watering.

Every so often, once the column is full, you can empty some of the finished compost from the bottom. To do so, ensure the drawer has no water in it and pull the screen out half way to allow vermicompost to exit the bottom of the compost column, and fall into the drawer. You can use the finished compost in your gardens, and the liquid that drains down through the tower is also an ideal fertilizer.

What to Feed your Worms:

Most fruit and vegetable scraps, pulps from juicer
Cooked food
Tea leaves/bags and coffee grounds
Crushed/ground eggshells
Hair, vacuum cleaner dust, soiled paper, tissue, paper towels, shredded egg cartons
Shredded newspaper, cardboard, sawdust (untreated), wood ash
Lawn clippings in small quantities, weeds, clippings, prunings, dirt and leaves

What to Avoid or Limit:

Limit citrus and acidic fruit skin
Limit bread, pasta and other wheat based products
Avoid hard fruit pits
Avoid spice foods, onions, garlic and leeks
Avoid animal products such as meat, dairy, or fats
Avoid shiny paper
Do not feed rotten food to your worms

Taking Care of Your Worms

Worms are low maintenance and will be happy as long as they are fed, have enough moisture, and are kept between 40° and 80° F. Worms should be protected from extreme temperatures. The vertical tower planters can be used successfully both indoors and outdoors, and they are a great space-saver in a greenhouse!

You don't need to feed your worms every day – just add scraps as you have them. We recommend a generous handful or two of food every couple of days. Worms can survive up to 2 weeks without any new food. Worms reproduce inside the tower according to their space limitations. They will regulate their own population, so you never need to worry about overcrowding your tower.

It is very important that the Garden Tower compost is not overfed. Worms prefer to eat their food as it begins to decompose, but not if it has become slimy and smelly.

In Mid & Northern regions, overwintering is possible during milder winters. In a cold winter, we suggest that the center compost should be removed (with worms) and placed in a 1-foot deep hole in the ground outside of your dwelling (if accessible). Alternatively, you could empty the contents and worms into a indoor worm composting system.

Trans, sapphic vampires?! YES PLEASE!
Format: Kindle
Before I just go recommending this book to everyone, please be in mind that there is misgendering, deadnaming, and slurs pertaining to transgendered people in the book. The author is a trans woman, so all of these instances are addressed on page. I am a lover of all things vampire, and when my kindle recommended this trans, sapphic romance, I couldn't hit the buy button fast enough. Miyako is a trans woman who wants more to life since coming out as trans. The two joys in her life are Luna (her best friend) and River (her sister). Miyako begrudgingly accompanies Luna to see her favorite band, but she doesn't expect to meet actual vampires who agree to turn both her and Luna. After Miyako is turned, she finds herself in a body that finally reflects the way that she has always felt, a burgeoning crush on a gorgeous vampire who hates her, and other lingering dangerous that she didn't anticipate. I freaking loved Miyako. Miyako has always been so sure of herself and her identity regardless of what others think of her, including her trash ass parents that deserve to burn in the pits of hell (sorry not sorry). Miyako also will do any and everything to protect those she loves, which includes protecting her sister River from the bigoted and trashy parents. Found family is the central theme of this book. Once you are turned, you are immediately accepted into the coven of Hell's Redemption, they do ANYHTHING for their own including providing a place to live and protection. I loved seeing this, and this is so important for queer folks who would otherwise have no support system. While this book does have several romantic pairings and soulmates is a big theme as well, the intimate scenes are fade to black, which works for this book (in my opinion). I can't wait for the next book, so I can get more of these amazing characters!

Sure hope there's a sequel
Format: Kindle
This books was lots of fun, with characters to love and hate, though the awful characters aren't around much, thank goodness. The world building is really good, but there's so much more to learn that I hope there's another book in the works.
