Gardening with Worms

Gardening is the main reason I haven't posted in a while. Spring being the busiest time of year in the garden!

In the past couple of months I've been planting seds transplanting seedlings and preparing beds for plants. Of course vermicompost has been an important part of that!
All my vegetable beds got a good dressing of vermicompost from the big flow through, and indoor bins were harvested to mix with coir to start seeds.
Here's a picture of one of my raised beds in March about a month ago:











And again today:













If you click on the bottom image, you'll see that the broad beans at the back of the bed are already well into flowering, and the garlic have reall

The chervil plant at the front of the bed has certainly benefited! I can't remember ever growing a single chervil plant that big. Unfortunately it looks as if it's about to go to seed, and this year's haven't come on yet. I'm really also surprised it survived the hard freezes we had this winter.
