Will worms survive in a container garden?
)
May 23rd, 2010
As an urban apartment dweller, my “garden” is two 14” diameter clay pots. The cheapest, plainest clay pots you find at the hardware store.
Are they big enough to support a worm or two?
The reason I want to introduce worms is that I pseudo-compost by putting my vegetable scraps & egg shells into the blender with water and pour the slurry in the flower pots. When I was a suburban dweller, my compost heap was a veritable worm ranch. They were HUGE so I assume I was treating them right.
Maybe the worms would enjoy meal, and the plants would benefit, too.
Can a common earthworm live in a 14” pot? Is that enough space?
