My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Worm Composting in Smart Pots?

14 years ago

I haven't yet started my worm compost bin yet. Mostly because near me is a nursery that sells 1cu. Ft. Of castings For $10.

But I had an interesting idea about starting a worm compost bin in a 20 gallon smart pot.

The fabric will freely allow oxygen to get in from all angles. But should keep the worms in and block light out.

Do you guys see anything wrong with this idea?

Thanks for your time
