My worms.

Recommended Posts

Good morning everyone. 

 

Earthworms are hermaphrodites; that is, they have both male and female sexual organs. Earthworms have one or two pairs of testes contained within sacs.

A hermaphrodite is an organism that has complete or partial reproductive organs and produces gametes normally associated with both male and female sexes.

That's why they never got anywhere in the evolutionary scale. While we were busy trying to get lucky, they were busy getting busy with themselves. 

Below is the theme song for evolution

From the time it emerges from its cocoon to the day it dies, an earthworm's life expectancy can vary widely, depending on the species.

 

The night crawler has an average life span between six to nine years and has been reported to live up to 20

 

 Red worms typically live between two and five years

 

Gray worms, which spend their entire lives beneath the soil surface, tend to live between 1.25 and 2.6 years on average

Yeah, looking good so far.

Just keep an eye out for two-headed worms ... 

Ok. Have lot of rubbish. 

Time to feed the worm again

 

some of the jackfruit is mould. Think the worm not eat mould.

Very interesting. Kudos to the O/P for his curiosity. Thanks for posting this @Yinn

 

.

This jackfruit tree have to many fruits. If want to grow to eat. Better take off the small one. The big one will be better.

 

So will cut off and feed the worm, mix with the rubbish.

Have the new eco takeaway container.

They biodegradable.

Not need to burn. No air pollution. Just feed it to the pet worm. 

I do this one to show it. I just put half in, to see it work how. 

 

It take 10 day for my worms to eat it.

What makes you think it's the worms doing that?  The containers are bio-degradable, as is everything else that you bury, of course that will happen, that's the point!  

 

Where your worms live there is more than enough natural food that worms actually eat, i.e. decaying plant and animal matter, why would they choose to eat your food containers?

The dark soil is where you have turned it over and added plant matter.  The soil patch right next to it would be the same colour if you dug it over and filled it with organic waste also! 

 

Where do you think that the worms came from?  They came from the surrounding soil, obviously!

... excellent, that's great news, just keep an eye on the offspring ... because if the babies are healthy (only one head, etc.) and remain so then maybe we all should switch to eat the bio food containers and throw away the food instead, might be healthier, 555 ...

 

Only half-kidding though ...

Actually worms play a very important role in creating healthy soil.  They aerate the soil, breakup dead organic matter and add nutrients.  The healthy black soil in Yinn's pictures is typical of worm castings. 

 

When I teach my students about soil formation next year (we already finished that chapter this year), I'll have them get two identical tubs of dirt and add worms to one, but not the other.  Unless one of the maids cleans up the experiment, as occasionally happens, the wormy soil should be darker and richer than the other.

 

And now for a bit of earthworm romance:

I'll name one NCC1701A and the other Yinn!  ????

What do you mean "there is no life", can't you see the plants growing there in your picture?  And just because there are no worms evident in the small cavity you dug does not mean that there aren't any out of sight!

 

It's amazing that you seem to think that soil that has been made "no good by tin mining" can be made wonderful again by the addition of your old food containers and a handful of worms.   If the soil was that bad the worms that you introduced there wouldn't stay regardless of your degradable trash.
