Interesting discussion. I had read some of the same things on the internet to include the discarded bathtub set-up. I have also read you need to keep your worm beds above ground and in their own worm beds where you can easily shift the soil and food around for the worms. I seem to recall there were plans of how to construct the worm beds.

When I retired, everyone ask me what I was going to do in retirement. I stated: I was going to start a worm farm and sell to all the local bait shops. Otherwise, I was going to test my worms with the fish as a quality control process. LOL

I did do some research at the time just to keep my co-workers guessing about my retirement plans and figured out it was much more work than I wanted to do in retirement. LOL

I do buy worms and keep them in the refrigerator. They seem to last for months at a time just being refrigerated. Much easier than raising them.

Can you actually grow pink worms in this area? I have heard they will only grow in Florida. They seem to be the favorite worms for Lake Martin fishing. I do not know, but it may have to do with moss??? I am guessing the moss has to be worked in with the soil of the worm beds???
