worm juice

I am embarrassed to say that I've owned a bin of red wiggler worms for several years and know little about what to do with their byproducts. They were given to me as a gift. They have been something I keep alive in my basement with good intentions of learning more about them. I think it is a little bit of a fear of tipping the boat. Their doing ok down there in my basement why tempt fate. If I am crazy, I am harmless!(couldn't even kill a worm) Unfortunately, my population seems to be diminishing. I think it is time to remove castings. I have been draining the juice from time to time. I really have been afraid to use the castings and juice on my plants because the person who gave the worms to me said if I over applied the castings and juice it could burn my vegetation. She said I need to mix my juice 1 part worm juice to 20 parts water and then apply to plants; the castings to soil ratio never was explained. Can someone help this embarrassed worm owner?
