Not so fast

I thought I had killed my earthworms, and they were doing so well! I've been getting worm tea (a nasty name for the liquid gold that comes from the worms eating all those cantaloupe rinds into paper thin layers) several times a week to add to our organic vegetable garden. Getting worm tea sounds like milking a cow but that's not how it works. Anyways, I had added a bunch of food for these worms of mine and they didn't seem to be eating it. So I dug through trying to find them and couldn't really see many. I added some shredded paper and misted it and within a week they were back in business!  You should see my tomato plant now. It looks like I gave it steroids. Capresse salad anyone?
