- this is an interesting thread on Garden Web...
"Don't waste any of your money.
...(worm queen extraordinaire) says to get a rubbermaid kitchen garbage can (doesn't matter, as long as the lid fits tight), cut the bottom off and bury it about 2 feet in the ground in an out of the way part of your yard. Put in some garden soil, hay or straw, some compost, and then add the poop. As you add poop, make sure you add dead leaves or straw to balance the mix. The worms will come! Just make sure you do NOT use the byproduct on any edible plants (no matter how black and rich it is!)....".
