To harvest the castings, just feed on one side of the container, then switch to the other side. The worms will follow the food and leave the side that's been reduced to castings.

I sowed these adenium in 1/2" of castings and never got around to repotting them. I poked a hole in there with my finger to show the depth.
Pete what i meant was for the price per bag it was a waste. I know so many more things I could put together to get a good result. I am not against vermiculture, I just think its a shame the charge that for a bag whether it is a fair market price or not A lot of people cant justify spending that much on a small bag.
