Using worm castings in potting mix
Container Gardening with Worm Castings Fertilizer

Potting Mix and Worm castings 

Did you think it was possible to grow corn in a container?  Well, as you can see, we did. Using a potting soil mix and continuous watering, the corn did quite well, thank you very much.

Using worm castings fertilizer In containers

Worm castings are an excelling container fertilizer.  The slow release of nutrients provide the plants with everything they need, all without the danger of burn.  By adding micro-dosing of VermaPlex® to the watering system, even heavy users like corn can thrive.  Here's our potting soil mix formula:
  • 1/3 peat moss
  • 1/3 perilite
  • 1/3 certified organic Pure Black Castings™
Continuous watering and micro-dosing with VermaPlex®:
  • Add 1-2 ounces of VermaPlex® to the  reservoir  (or to your watering can) every time you add water.
Extra Nitrogen:
  • For extra nitrogen users like corn, mix VermaMax® granules with the worm castings at a 50/50 ratio.  

  • Alternate the VermaPlex® micro-dosing with a shot of VermaMax LE® (1 ounce or so)
Then, quick - step back before the corn hits you in the nose!

Recipe For gardening success:

  • Add Pure Black Castings™  and VermaMax® Granules to your potting soil mix.  
  • Water in with VermaPlex® and give booster shots of VermaMax LE®
