Some of those plants will hit 4 a plant. Some might not. However, everything is super healthy. Your continuing your fantastic grow, and most of the season is behind us. Keep it up, looking dank-tastic!
I have several different worm piles and bins. I have a worm bin 360 that I keep house scraps in, and the main purpose here is farming worms. Not the castings. That is how I replenish my large piles. My large piles, I like to buy a yard (or several yards) of top quality compost. I am lucky, near me I can pick up some great diestel compost for 60-80$ a yard. I place that in my 200 - 400 gallon
smart pots and inoculate the compost with basalt, other minerals and sometimes some kelp or alfalfa in small amounts. Then I take my worms from my 360 and place them into the new pot, keep the moisture levels where they need to be, and 3-12 months later you end up with some fantastic castings. The advantage to using a nice compost as a base is even if the worms don't work 100% of the pile, the compost is still good to go. I just top dressed my garden with 2" of these castings after about 4-6 months of sitting, and the castings were top quality. The humus on my hands was dark and plentiful. I don't bother sifting because the compost base is quality, and the worms are great for the beds. I just make sure not to empty the
smart pot 100%, and top it off with fresh inoculated compost. That way the remaining worms in the old, mostly harvested castings will repopulate the new compost.
The quality of castings this produces is worth 500$ a yard, easy. I have found this is the easiest way to farm quality castings that doesn't need sifting.
