Microbe‑Charged Worm Castings – Premium Lucerne‑Fed Red Wiggler Organic Fertilizer

What are Microbe-Charged Worm Castings and how are they different?

They’re premium worm castings made from a clean, mineral-rich feedstock, screened to 10mm, and packed with active microbes. Unlike generic compost or low-grade castings, they’re consistent, microbe-rich, and designed to support living soil systems and plant health.

What plants can I use Microbe-Charged Worm Castings on?

They’re safe for nearly all plants—indoor pots, veggies, herbs, lawns, seedlings, flowers, shrubs, and fruit trees. Gentle and slow-release, they won’t burn and are great for seedlings or edible gardens.

How do I use them—top-dress or mix into soil?

You can mix 10–20% by volume into potting soil, or top-dress with a thin layer and water in. For seed starting, go lighter (~10%). Think “thin blanket” not a thick mulch cap.

How often should I reapply and when’s the best time?

Top up pots monthly or every couple of months. For garden beds, apply once or twice a year. They shine at transplant time, early growth, and after stress like heat or repotting.

Do worm castings replace fertiliser?

Sometimes—for light feeders or as a maintenance feed. For hungry plants like tomatoes or citrus, think of castings as a soil health base and add fertiliser if needed. They also help buffer pH naturally.

Do worm castings improve soil structure and water retention?

Yes—they improve aeration, hold moisture, and support soil crumb structure. In pots or sandy soils, this helps reduce dry-outs and supports longer hydration. Just avoid overcompacting your mix.

Do castings help with pests or diseases?

Indirectly, yes. Healthier soil biology often means stronger plants and less pest pressure. Some microbes can suppress soil nasties, but they’re not a pesticide. They're safe around kids and pets too.

Can I use worm castings with compost or fertilisers?

Yes—they play well with compost, minerals, synthetic or slow-release feeds. Just avoid stacking heavy fertilisers right at the roots, and keep your mix airy if using in coco blends.

Can I use them in hydroponics or living soil?

They're perfect for living soil systems. For hydro setups, don’t add them to reservoirs. You can brew a tea from them and apply to the media, but filter well and avoid clogging.

Will castings attract gnats or grow fuzz?

If the surface stays soggy, any organic input can invite gnats. Let the top layer dry slightly between waterings. White fuzz is often harmless fungal growth—if it smells earthy, you’re good.

Can I brew worm tea with these castings?

Yes—steep in dechlorinated water, stir or aerate, then use the same day. Molasses is optional and only for aerated teas. For foliar use, strain well. Never store worm tea for later.

How should I store Microbe-Charged Worm Castings?

Keep the bag sealed, cool, and dry—out of sun and heat. Don’t let them dry out completely or stay soggy. Store like fresh pantry goods to preserve microbial life.

What’s the texture like? Will they stain or clump?

They’re screened, free-flowing, and easy to mix—not sticky sludge. Slight clumping is normal—break it up and store sealed. They may stain clothes or hands, so gloves help if you’re neat-minded.

How fast will I see results?

Within 1–2 weeks you may notice better growth or perkier plants, especially in tired soil. Long-term, castings help build healthier soil over time. They’re not a quick-fix stimulant—they’re a foundation.

What sizes are available and are they worth it if my soil is already good?

Available in 5L and 15L bags. Even in great soil, regular top-ups with quality castings compound over time—think of it as easy-mode growing with fewer issues and stronger roots.
