I can see this design being adapted to a 55 gallon plastic barrel with great success. Bonus is you could insulate a barrel pretty easily too so your worms stay alive over winter.
I truely enjoyed you having fun at the expense of others. There is a saying. Don't kill the Mother. A kin to roasting the Goose that lays golden eggs. Heck no! One takes those golden eggs and purchases geese that lay good old regular eggs. Thanks Diego for your efforts. Like you say."Put in the work".
I use to have an indoor worm bin for about 20 years ..under my sink...the kids had no idea until we moved...neither liked to even walk barefoot in lush st augusting grass...and wouldnt tough anything remotely connected to a bug much less a WORM. I HONESTLY HAD ONE FAINT WHEN SHE TRIED TO PACK IT..ASKING ME WHY I HAD NOT REMOVED THAT FROM THE CABNET.....OMG..PRICELESS...SHE DOESNT GARDEN TO THIS DAY AND THAT WAS WELL OVER 37 YEARS AGO...YEAH IM PUSHING 80 And one of my earliest memories was my grandpas garden...especially when strawberries were coming on...or his secret patch of raspberries...only he ate them....i snuck several .lol..and i dont think he ever knew for sure...i never fessed up...and only him and i knew about it...i always helped him pick the gooseberries and they hid the rasberries...god i miss him and his garden Maybe in heaven we will grow things..and have all our doggirs and.cats and horses and cows...and.goats...u get the idea...and your ALGORITHM is fed..
Hi Diego - I notice you didn't include "Search for Soil" in your list of podcasts. Is that series not coming back? Like the rest of your content, I found it to be excellent!
Just curious if you know, since I am a new gardener. Is there a plant that is better to compost that give the compost more nutrients and trace minerals. I have seen videos on comfry being good to compost. But I have also seen it is poisonous. Made it can be a future video.
Sea weed if you have access to it. Second best for trace minerals would be the seeds of plants. Run through animals is fine, such as chicken manure. If you don't have access to either pretty much any plant with a deep root system harvested green. Compost is a great equalizer so I wouldn't stress about making the best. The microorganisms in it is more important than the chemistry.
I like this design wish someone would try to bring it back to the market, I have several flowthrough bin systems including the VermiBag, VB96 (vermi bin) and the Worm WigWam but having the turning bar on top I think is an improvement. A quick google search worm cube didn't find any relevant links.. this must be indeed a one of a kind
Couldn’t you go to the scrap yard and find something that would kinda work and then fabricate something out of that? People throw things away all the time and repurposing of something would be cheaper, at least until you finalize a design.
@@marlenen6130 I could try to scavenge some materials, but being a custom build I would still have to buy new pieces, however I am very limited in free time as I work till dark everyday
What happens if the worms are playing hide and seek, and one of them decides to hide on the bottom, where no one suspects? Crushed. That's what happens.
I've watch a quite a few of your videos and most of the time they're pretty good but a very small portion of every video makes me think you're a very weird dude. Thanks for the vid dude 😁
If you are worried about residual herbicides in horse manure maybe you could use a similar set up to this with a donut shaped top (seat) and make your own , if your neighbours are close by a privacy screen may be desirable ... happy worm farming every one :-)

It's like a million tiny voices were supposed to cry out in terror before being suddenly silenced, but they didn't.
Haha so glad we broke out the garden gate for this one!
I wish the gate screen demo was 15 minutes long of him acting it out.
😆
@@DiegoFooter This was honestly the best video you've ever put out LOL Holy crap I'm DYING here
Good video... would love to see a video showing how to build this.
I'm almost done building my chainlink fence bed. Wondering if I've made a mistake.
Only if it isn’t as rusted as possible.
Well done ...well done...humans are so clever...and your definitely a human

And one of my earliest memories was my grandpas garden...especially when strawberries were coming on...or his secret patch of raspberries...only he ate them....i snuck several
.lol..and i dont think he ever knew for sure...i never fessed up...and only him and i knew about it...i always helped him pick the gooseberries and they hid the rasberries...god i miss him and his garden
Maybe in heaven we will grow things..and have all our doggirs and.cats and horses and cows...and.goats...u get the idea...and your ALGORITHM is fed..
Very good video and I like the humor.
Diego has seen the comments before the drop. Cutting edge
Max Headroom comes to mind!
You are showing your age lol
An old washing machine comes to mind
I am glad you addressed this, I was worried about the worms myself(although I dont think I commented,might have though,lol)
You funny!!! Choppin’ up dem worms
Looks like it is working nice.
Great video, showed me exactly what I needed to understand before getting my own:)

More starting in July.
Nice
I use a heat lamp. Drives them down.. Funny video brah!!!
If the worm police come at you maybe you can ask them to buy you a worm-safety lightbulb to shine underneath the box before 'the massacre' starts. :)
Bro. This was funny. :)
Hello 👋 any updates about this system?
What substrate did you start with (other than a few layers of cardboard at the bottom, and worms)? btw, nice comedy bits
Partially composted horse manure.
Worm Tetanus! LMAO!

Those names though. Lol
Just watched a previous video where he talked about having just bought it. Said it was a custom build he found on craigslist
I am building a larger version of this, should hold 2/3 cu yard when full but they aren't cheap, just the metal is $500 for the materials.

That worm should know better. 😝
It takes me about 1 hour every 4 months to harvest mine.

LOL!
Hilarious
Bet that thing costs a lot.
I am the first view! :-)
Shirt makes him look like a pale worm...
Though do like the videos
😂
