hi. All this takes me back to my original post, i.e., we are intending to install a separett on our issjelaak. With this, the liquids either go straight...

That's interesting to hear Larry, I've had a similar plan and I'm glad somebody has done it before me. A couple questions, how often/how much do you apply,...
Hi Lindy, thanks for that. Are you able to give proportions of humanure to worms, i.e. would a bucket full of it be too much for wormery to cope with in one...
