Wormlovers Products


Worms:
 We breed compost worms for domestic and garden use in custom built or commercially available worm farms. Worms are a mixture of the three most common compost worm species, the Red worm, Blue worm and Tiger worm. Tiger worms are not suitable for fishing as they emit a repellent. Worms are available in 10 litre retail boxes (approximately 1000 worms weighing 250 gramms). We recommend 1000 worms for each member of your household to start a well functioning worm farm. For larger quantities (over 10,000) we require an advance order.

Vermicompost / Worm Castings: Worm castings are the secretions left by worms after they have digested organic matter. Vermicompost is castings plus small traces of composted matter which have not been completely broken down. Both are  high value slow release soil conditioners which add life to soils and greatly increase plant growth and vitality. Beneficial micro organism numbers are many times higher than the soil and organic matter the worm ingests. Worm castings are widely believed to be amongst the best complete plant food known.

Worm farms:  We can supply commercially designed and customized worm systems at competitive prices, complete with instructions and appropriate worm populations if required

"VERMILIFT" Liquid Castings (Worm Juice):

Vermilift is an enhanced liquid vermicast or wormjuice, made by collecting the nutrient and microbe rich liquid produced from our advanced vermiculture (worm based) composting system. Inputs and outputs of the Vermilift production process are carefully controlled and monitored to ensure the highest potency of this biologically enhanced soil and plant conditioner. There are numerous benefits to using Vermilift, including healthier soils, crops, and animals, and increased yields.

Vermilift is produced in a unique 3 step process that ensures maximum strength, shelf life and value for money. See below for more information on content, nutrient and microbe analysis, and details of Vermilift advantages. Vermilift is slightly alkaline with a ph of 7.8.

 How does Vermilift work?

The real benefit of Vermilift lies in the vast numbers of micro-organisms it contains, which multiply in huge numbers once applied to the soil and go to work on mineral compounds lying dormant in the soil, releasing them in soluble, ready to use forms for plant growth.

With Vermilift you are feeding the soil and building up soil health and vitality, and increasing the soil “food web” of friendly organic matter. With Vermilift microbial activity in your soils is enhanced helping to break down organic matter much quicker. Vermilift contains millions of friendly bacteria which activate the natural nutrient cycling processes (such as fixing nitrogen from the air) of healthy soils

Vermilift does not feed the plant directly as with high analysis NKP fertilisers where you feed the plant directly for short term effect but may create long term soil issues. With long term use Vermilift application NPK fertilizer usage can be reduced and even halted altogether as the soils natural nutrient cycling functions are restored and continue year round

If used correctly Vermilift will go to work within hours of application and the microbes will begin their beneficial work almost immediately.

If a drop of Vermilift is analysed under a microscope a whole ecosystem of microscopic life may be observed, including large quantities of nitrogen fixing bacteria. Vermilift analysis shows a high 950,000 CFU of bacteria per mm. (A regular wormjuice sample may contain100,000CFU/ml) *CFU means Colony Forming Units and is a measure of microbial activity.

In addition, Vermilift contains liquid minerals and trace elements in a form that are soluble and ready for immediate plant uptake. Vermilift typically contains dozens of different nutrients and minerals. The nutrients in Vermilift are in smaller amounts than chemical fertilizers, however it is important to note that these are in a soluble form ready for plant uptake.

Trace elements and nutrients have become water soluble through the action of enzymes in the worm’s digestive systems which converts source minerals into soluble form. Trace elements in Vermilift include nitrogen potassium, calcium, magnesium, sodium, phosphorus, iron, manganese, zinc, copper, cobalt, sulphur and molybdenum.

As a foliar spray, Vermilift coats leaves and plant surfaces with a microscopic coating of beneficial microbes which can assist in repelling and killing harmful pests and diseases. Nematodes and diseases will not ruin plants if the soil is rich enough, and the plants are healthy enough to grow fast and strong.

As a Seed Dressing, Vermilift gives inoculated seeds a head start; as soon as they germinate they have a nutrient and microbe rich coating supplying them with all they need to push roots down into, and foliage up, from the soil.

Benefits and Advantages of Vermilift

 

Plants treated with Vermilift are larger, grow faster and more vigorously, and taste better.

Vermilift helps improve soil health and depth. Increases soil aeration and moisture absorption capacity of soils with repeated use.

Vermilift helps build organic content of soil and and microbial activity.

Trace elements are immediately available because of their dissolved state in Vermilift.

Vermilift fortifies the plants against disease and pests.

Vermilift can restore soil PH rather than acidifying it.

Soils and crops treated with Vermilift will become more and more healthy robust and productive with repeated use.

Vermilift may help plants to repel insect and disease attack. Assists in repelling aphids, white flys and other pests

If applied correctly Vermilift goes to work within hours of application

Animals grazing on Vermilift treated with pastures tend to be healthier, have higher fertility and lower mortality rates.

Due to the increase in mineral availability, Grazing animals on Vermilift treated pastures tend to suffer less from mineral deficiency conditions such as grass tetany and milk fever

VERMILIFT Testimonials

Lindsey Smith – Beef, Cobden

We run beef cattle and have been using Vermilift every year for 6 years now and are happy with the results. We have noticed the animals seem to be healthier grazing on pasture treated with the wormjuice, with lower mortality and higher fertility. Our cattle don't suffer from grass tetany (usually associated with high nitrogen fertilisers and low magnesium soils – wormjuice has good magnesium levels) or milk fever. We also notice more clover, and sustained growth of grass through the year- rather than those growth spurts you get with Urea and Super.

We apply the Vermilift with a bit of added molasses to get the microbes going, and apply this by aerial spraying. The pilot says its easy to see where to spray as our propertys pastures are a much darker, richer green compared to other properties. That must be the best proof that Vermilift works.
