VermicompostingNew inA terracotta tube for vermicomposting in your pots
Turn your flowerpots and planters into a wormery! A simple, 100% natural terracotta tube that you bury in the soil and fill with peelings.
- The tube is buried in a pot, a planter or the vegetable patch.
- You put your peelings inside, and the worms come to eat them.
- It works just as well indoors as outdoors.
What if your flowerpots became wormeries? That's the idea behind this 100% natural and eco-friendly terracotta tube, made in the French Basque Country by Bioclimakit.
How does it work?
The principle couldn't be simpler:
- Push the tube into the soil of your pot, planter or vegetable patch.
- Put your organic waste inside: peelings, coffee grounds…
- Close the lid.
- Compost worms come in through the holes in the tube, eat the waste and enrich the soil all around it.
Your plants benefit directly from the worms' work, right next to their roots.
Indoors and outdoors
The tube can be used in a large planter on the balcony just as well as in a garden flower bed. Terracotta is a natural material: no plastic comes into contact with your plants.
A Christmas gift idea
For any gardener, it's an original and useful gift. And don't forget the Willy soft toy, a lovely gift idea to put under the tree!
Update: since then, we have designed our own terracotta wormery to bury in the ground, the WORMacotta. To find out all about this type of model, read our page what is an in-ground wormery.
