Premium Earthworm Castings - Organic 10 LB, Very fine, Low Moisture Content, Easy to Spread. Seed Starting, propgation, Improve Soil Structure, Natural Plant Hormones for Fertility

Super fine texture with no chunks or bits of foreign substances. Not only nourishes plants, but the fine texture helps with the consistency of the medium when I up pot my seed starts into larger cels or small pots.When this product was temporarily sold out at Amazon a couple of months back, I picked up a bag of worm castings from a big box store, despite having misgivings. That purchase showed me, in contrast, what I don’t want in a bag labelled worm castings. It was coarse, there were little sticks, and there were several several little seedling filaments growing in the bag. (Yes, I returned the bad brand.) I was thrilled to find the Vermont Castings back in stock here before long and purchased a bag of a product I know I can trust.

I admit that I used to just buy the less-expensive brands of worm castings. In the past they were OK, but in the last year my go-to brands seemed like they were way too moist and difficult to use efficiently.I decided to go ahead and get some VermisTerra brand because they were supposed to be drier and easy to use/spread. I wasn't happy about the price, but then again, I wasn't happy buying bags of water either.What a difference!!! The VermisTerra is dry, and a little goes a very long way. It's also easier to spread around, and not get clumps. It also doesn't hurt that I get to carry around a smaller container (definitely easier on my back).I originally got the regular VermisTerra, and this time I decided to get the Premium version. The Premium is even more finely milled, so it seems that it breaks down faster into the "soil goodie" that my plants like.So while VermisTerra worm castings seem like they are more expensive than some of the other brands, they really aren't. I'd have to buy at least 30 lbs of the other castings to get the same amount of VermisTerra, due to the water content in the other brands. That's 20 lbs of water I don't need to lug around my garden.

Don't buy those 20 lb bags of earthworm castings sold on here in the giant bag, it's almost all twigs and coarse material. This stuff is extremely dark and like a powder. It is perfect for mixing into your soil, whether you're doing a custom blend or just scratching some on the top. I can already see my tomato and pepper plants responding beautifully. This is the top tier stuff.Edit: I'm still buying this regularly! I've purchased 5 bags so far and I genuinely prefer this over the other brand stuff. One of the major things I forgot to note before is it isn't dusty either, there's no kickback, which is such a plus.

Worm casting were all in the box and all over the other items in the box.

My garden was damaged during the storm. The salt from the ocean nearby, caused most of the leaves to turn brown, this stuff saved my garden. In about a week my plants started growing nice green leaves as I continued to trim off the brown ones. This is all I use now in my garden and the Vermisterra Worm Tea.Another thing I noticed was how much yield I got from my vegetables. My pepper and tomato plants were loaded. Whereas before, there were a few peppers. These were also grown in containers.

I am a beginner gardener and read great things about worm castings. The product came well packaged and seemed to be a good material. It was thin and not clumpy. Easy to use. Not sure it if was a positive or negative addition to my garden.

I can buy a 20 pound bag of worm castings at my garden center for half the price. It is false economy though, because what comes out of that bag is super wet; the VermisTerra castings are dry as a bone and basically powder. The wetter type of casting is also much more difficult to mix into the soil, as it tends to clump. Not so with the VermisTerra. I'm happy with my purchase and will buy again when I need another bag.

The media could not be loaded.  My seedlings have taken off with this stuff used in combination with the Vermisterra worm tea. As soon as I sprinkled and scratched the castings into the surface of the plant, within days the roots on my tomato seedlings grew stronger and fatter! I have never seen anything like it. My plants have had a great start because of this product. I'd definitely purchase again. This IS the year for a more abundant harvest for me because of this product and it's given me hope!
