RE: My soil is uppening! My soil is uppening!

in #permaculture6 years ago

Wow! I didn't know about uppening. It's a good thing I have developed the discipline of loving even the insects. I kept thinking worms dig up the soil, they feed through it and their poop adds as fertilizers so I automatically throw those worms into my plant pots and into my compost pit. I didn't know they were very helpful in making my soil healthy. Nice!

Oh yeah, worms are great. They till and aerate the soil, so you don't have to! Saves a lot of work in the garden, and like you said, while they're eating, they're feeding everything too. All the little microorganisms in your soil are working together to make it awesome!

I literally just went out to look for worms scattered everywhere and placed them into my plants. LOL!
