Luke’s $10k A Week Blog

Recently, a mixture of European Night Crawlers and Red Wrigglers came in the mail. They arrived on Tuesday, a writhing 1-lb mass of the delightful little squirmers mixed with some shredded newspaper.

They have been given a rather sizable bed, which is about 4×8 feet, or 32 square feet. That’s quite a lot of surface area for a single pound of worms. Since I plan to raise them commercially, I want them to reproduce as fast as possible. Hopefully a nice, large bed will encourage them. Given enough space and the right temperature, they can double in mass every 30 days.
