Thats exactly why i started makin my own. So its as diverse as possible and as biologically available.

5KG brick of coir 11$
3 Cubic feet of Peat moss 9$
3 Cubic feet of perlite 18.95
dolomite 4lb's 8.95$

total cost to raise tons of worms for a year ^^^

Add 20$ for a 50lb bag of worm food if you want a population boom in a hurry.. if not . totally optional.

If i spent that much on the bagged stuff it would go very far. God only knows how long its been on the shelf
 
#117
