Letting the mixture sit for around 28 days (with occasional stirring) is done to help us to control the temperature of the feedstock and ultimately the worm bin - note if the worm bin gets too warm it will kill your worms. Prairie Son Acres) is still trying to develop strong fungal networks in our soils, we added a few extra wood chips to help the processes along. For example wood chips and shredded paper attract specific types of desirable fungi as our farm (i.e. attract) specific types of organisms which can be used to create feedstocks with specific benefits. Moreover, certain ingredients select for (i.e. A diversity of decaying ingredients attracts a diversity of microorganisms, which is exactly what we want.
What is important however, is a diversity in ingredients.
Now this is worm food, not rocket fuel so when we say equal parts we mean equal-ish - eyeballing it is fine, there is no need for proper weights or measures, again, we are literally making worm food. Our recipe is as simple as it gets: in a large plastic tub, mix together equal parts cow manure, raw vegetable/fruit waste, barley or wheat straw, wood chips, and shredded paper let the mixture sit in for 28 days, stirring occasionally, and serve to your worms in small batches as needed.
