Organic Fertilizer – Happy Frog Organic Rose Food</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
It should come as
no surprise that <a href="http://www.unclejimswormfarm.weebly.com/">Uncle Jim's Worm Farm</a> wholly supports organic
fertilizers. Organic fertilizer provides astronomical benefits to
your plants, fruits, vegetables, and anything else growing from the
soil. Organic fertilizers don't include the same hazardous chemicals
that are typically found in laboratory produced fertilizers, making
your environment more welcoming to natural wildlife. But the search
for organic fertilizers can offer overwhelming results that may need
some clarification.
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
One of <a href="http://www.earthworm4sale.com/">Uncle Jim's Worm Farm</a>'s proudest products is the Happy Frog Organic Rose Food, an
apetizing source of minerals and nutrition that your rose beds will
bloom for. Roses are one of the most beautiful products from mother
nature that humans have domesticated. But harnessing their beautiful
power is a difficult task, as their roots and cell structure require
particular elements that can't be found in every soil. The Happy
Frog Organic Rose Food immediately amends that lacking soil with
vital minerals and nutrients. This organic fertilizer comes loaded
with linoleic acid, a key ingredient to promoting happy blooms. The
humic acids currated in this organic fertilizer help seed
germination, promoting faster growth. And most wildly, this organic
fertilizer comes blended with 20 different microbes, catering to all
the needs that your roses will demand.
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Aside from the
above-mentioned ingredients, this rose organic fertilizer can offer
other organic nutrients to the demanding roses. Bat guano is a great
organic nutrient, stimulating this organic fertilizer into a power
food source for the roses' hungry roots. And if roses could walk,
they would certainly uproot and replant themselves in this organic
fertilizer, as it provides one of roses' favorite ingredients,
alfalfa.
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Because of organic
fertilizer, chemical fertilizers no longer have to be an option. Our
plants and lawn and vegetation can become safer for pets and children
and ourselves. Roses grown from organic fertilizers are capable of
blooming larger buds than with chemical fertilizers. And the roses
will hold more preference to the organic fertilizer, and are more
likely to grow next season naturally in the same location as the
organic fertilizer, because of the organic fertilizer. With the help of companies like <a href="http://www.lookuppage.com/users/unclejimswormfarm/">Uncle Jim's Worm Farm</a> organic
fertilizers are earning main stream recognition, and for a reason.
They improve soil conditions, which encourages plants and vegetation
to grow their naturally. Sometimes, with chemical fertilizers, plants
won't grow in that location, because chemicals can leave an unwanted
residue. Or, the nitrogen in the chemical fertilizer can release
very, leaving the plant in a very nitrogen-depleted environment.
Organic fertilizer slowly releases the nitrogen, satisfying the plant
and its roots through a much longer period.
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
And on top of all
of these benefits that come from organic fertilizers, they can also
help your soil work more efficiently. The nutrients that are present
in organic fertilizer are more minerizable, allowing for excess
nutrients to be stored, and used as the duration of the plant needs
the nutrients throughout its life time. With efficient processing
like this, organic fertilizers are above and beyond preferred by the
plants. Chemical fertilizers can come packed with nutrients and
minerals, but their inability to blend organically with the
surroundings puts their offerings at a severe disadvantage, as the
nutrients are quickly dissolved if they are not consumed by the plant
in a quick feeding.
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
</div>
<div style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
So clearly, the
organic fertilizers are providing the plants and vegetation with more
nutrients and minerals, helping them achieve their full potential.
And with the specific organic ingredients desired by rose bushes,
Happy Frog's Organic Rose Food is a natural and organic choise to
supply the requests of hungry roses.

<a href="http://frankwiggler.hubpages.com/hub/A-Review-on-Red-Wiggler-Worms-or-Eisenia-Foetida-worms">Uncle Jim's Worm Farm Review </a>: The Best Worms for Composting
Red worms, also called eisenia foetida worms, are the best choice for
creating rich compost.<a href="http://unclejimswormfarm.blogspot.com/2012/05/uncle-jim-s-worm-farm-get-to-know-more.html"> Uncle Jim's Worm Farm</a> recommends this species.
Although they originated in Europe, nearly every country has a supply of
this particular reddish-colored worm.
Most <a href="http://www.blogger.com/www.earthworms4sale.com">red worms</a> grow to four inches long, and many people mistake them
for earthworms. This species can eat a vast quantity of food, which is a
major reason why they make excellent composting worms. Red worms are
very hardy, thriving in temperatures of between 70 and 80 degrees.
Additionally, red worms reproduce quickly. Within three months, you
might have twice as many worms in your compost pile!
Red worms live happy and productive lives in a compost bin drilled with
holes to provide ventilation and drainage. They need lots of oxygen, and
so do the beneficial microbes that live with them. Bedding material
should be moist and organic. Food should be in small pieces mixed into
the bedding</div>

<a href="http://www.facebook.com/UncleJimsWormFarm">Uncle Jim's Worm Farm</a> is a major proponent of using worms to break down
landfill waste. Worms are exceptionally adept at utilizing up to 60
percent of biodegradable waste. Many cities around the country are
facing new laws that seek to reduce the amount of landfill garbage. A
great way to achieve this goal is to use a natural source like red worms
to break up the soil and create highly desirable worm castings, which
can be sold for up to $2,000 per ton. Gardeners and landscapers love
these castings, which contain many plant nutrients for growing produce.
Red worms are low-maintenance and double their numbers every 90 days.
They consume an enormous amount of food and aerate the soil to increase
waste breakdown. <a href="http://www.squidoo.com/A-Review-on-Eisenia-Foetida-or-Red-Wiggler">Review Uncle Jim's Worm Farm</a> to find supplies red worms to compost

<div align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0in;">
Mealworm anatomy From <a href="http://unclejimswormfarm.blogspot.com/2012/06/more-about-uncle-jims-worm-farms-and.html">Uncle Jim's Worm Farm</a>!
</div>
<div align="LEFT" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div align="LEFT" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Just
like anything living system, there is a specific anatomy that
structures this design, and <a href="http://www.unclejimswormfarm.com/">live mealworms </a>are no different. They have a
very specific anatomy, tailored to their very specific needs. The
anatomy of a mealworm can be a little surprising, as they are often
considered as yellowish forms of worms. But after a closer look, it
is obvious that mealworms have segmented bodies, similar to insects,
share 6 legs, contain antenae, and even flex a grigging pair of
mandibles.
</div>
<div align="LEFT" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div align="LEFT" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
To
begin, let's focus on the mealworms' head. Rather than just
displaying a single orifice, the head of a mealworm can present a
multitude of attributes. Unlike worms, a mealworms does have a pair
of eyes, known as “larval eyes,” because of the larva stage the
mealworms is in. Beneath the eyes, a mealworms will have a labrum,
which acts as the lip over top the mealworms' mouth. Because the
mealworms don't have complex eyes, they rely on other sensory organs
to help them distinguish where they should be headed, such has
antennas. Instead of being positioned directly on top of the
mealworms' head, the antennas are located near the jowls of the
mealworm, close to the cheeks. This doesn't offer the range that
typical, topical antennas offers. But, nevertheless, it does suffice
more than not having any. And most prominent, the children's
favorite, the menacing mandibles protruding from the sides of the
mouth. To the dismay of the destruction happy kids, these mandibles
don't slice and destroy like cartoons and movies would make them
appear. Instead, they are really efficient grabbers, strongly
holding onto food, which then slowly feeds to the mouth.
</div>
<div align="LEFT" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div align="LEFT" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Progressing
further down the mealworms' body is the thorax. The thorax is a
segmented part, with each segment containing a pair of legs. The
mealworm legs are not great for walking, however, they are great for
digging. The thorax of a mealworms is protected with a strong armor
like shell known as an exoskeleton. And then what that exoskeleton
is protecting are various organs that lay inside the thorax,
typically major organs and reproduction glands.
</div>
<div align="LEFT" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div align="LEFT" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
Progressing
further, towards then, we're presented with the abdomen. The abdomen
is the largest part of the mealworm, consisting of 3/5<sup>th</sup>
of its body. The abdomen has no legs or complex facial sensors.
Instead, the abdomen is filled with a digestive track, that then
leads to the anus. The mealworms' abdomen is filled the rest of the
way with lots of fat, which the mealworm relies on, so that they can
then transform in the pupa stage of their metamorphosis.
</div>
<div align="LEFT" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<br /></div>
<div align="LEFT" style="font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
After
analyzing the anatomy of a mealworm, it becomes easy to understand
why so many birds and reptiles crave them for food. With a body full
of fat, carbs, and proteins, any growing, hungry bird or reptile
would immediately consume mealworms for the essential nutrients they
require for survival. Knowing their nutritional value, it is
important to know where a pet owner can find these natural
delicacies. The internet is the simplest solution, and <a href="http://www.unclejimswormfarm.weebly.com/">Uncle Jim's Worm Farm</a> is the ideal and premier destination to locate a healthy
source of mealworms. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Uncle-Jims-Worm-Farm-Composting/product-reviews/B000Q5S7RM/ref=cm_cr_pr_viewpnt_sr_5?ie=UTF8&showViewpoints=0&filterBy=addFiveStar">Review Uncle Jim's Worm Farm</a> for live mealworms

Rasing Mealworms and Well as Composting Worms At Uncle Jim's Worm Farm<br />
<br />
Uncle Jim's Worm Farm <a href="http://www.unclejimswormfarm.com/" target="_blank">mealworms</a> are not actually worms, but rather the larval form of the
darkling beetle. In their natural environment, mealworms feed on organic
matter such as decaying tree stumps. At maturity, mealworms grow to a
maximum of about an inch. Anglers often use giant mealworms, which grow
up to three times larger than regular mealworms, as bait. However,
because giant mealworms are treated with a growth hormone, they do not
represent a healthy diet for birds or reptiles.
Setting up a mealworm habitat is simple and requires very little
investment of time or money. A plastic container about the size of a
shoebox is large enough to house plenty of mealworms. Fill the box with
high-protein bedding such as wheat bran, cornmeal, or rolled oats; the
bedding will become lunch for the mealworms. In addition, mealworms eat
their way quickly through kitchen scraps such as potatoes, carrots, or
orange rinds, which provide not only nutrients but also enough liquid to
keep the worms hydrated. Feed them kitchen scraps lightly, as moldy
food and wet bedding create an unhealthy habitat for the mealworms. <a href="http://unclejimswormfarm.weebly.com/" target="_blank">Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm</a> ships live mealworms for fishing or feeding birds
and reptiles. The protein-rich mealworms are available in quantities
from 500 to 5,000, and in sizes ranging from one-quarter to
three-quarters of an inch. They come complete with simple instructions
and are guaranteed to arrive alive. </div>UncleJims WormFarmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04720231125701241210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8863114191027600125.post-12895760681477529942012-06-08T06:50:00.000-07:002012-06-08T06:50:41.579-07:00More About Uncle Jims Worm Farms And Its Establishment And About Uncle Jims Worms<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
Ince being established in 1975 in Waterbury, Connecticut, <a href="http://unclejimswormfarm.blogspot.in/2012/06/uncle-jim-s-worm-farm-receive-diploma.html" target="_blank">Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm</a> has experimented with an array of worm species. However, one the farm recommends most is Eisenia foetida, or red wigglers. This is due to the fact that red wigglers are adaptable, easy to breed, and create a large amount of compost from manure and rotting vegetation.<br /><br />Red wigglers are essential to creating and maintaining healthy, nutrient-rich soil. This is due to the symbiotic relationship the worm has with the soil. The worms create tunnels close to the surface of the soil which allows water and nutrients to reach plant’s root systems while loosening the soil and aerating it. These tunnels are created as the worm eats and excretes worm castings. These byproducts are incredibly rich in nitrogen, phosphates, and potash, adding even more nutrients to the soil. A red wiggler can produce its weight in worm castings every day, giving plants continuous access to this valuable fertilizer.<br /><br />In addition to the actual worms, <a href="http://unclejimswormfarm.blogspot.in/2012/05/composting-101what-are-your-compost-bin.html" target="_blank">Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm</a> supplies customers with all the preliminary equipment needed to care for the worms and produce compost. Upon purchase, customers receive a durable container in which to raise red wigglers, worm meal to keep the worm container clean and odorless, and special worm bedding. The farm also supplies complete instructions on feeding, watering, and raising the healthiest worms possible.<br /><br /><a href="http://unclejimswormfarm.blogspot.in/2012/06/uncle-jim-s-worm-farm-what-to-expect.html" target="_blank">Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm</a> remains committed to the education of its customers and even offers the <a href="http://unclejimswormfarm.blogspot.in/2012/06/uncle-jim-s-worm-farm-where-to-find.html" target="_blank">Uncle Jim’s</a> University School of Composting and Vermiculture course. The course includes 2,000 worms, two books focused on worm farming, and a 50-question exam to test one’s knowledge.<br /><br /></div>UncleJims WormFarmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04720231125701241210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8863114191027600125.post-41343598410417632192012-06-03T20:23:00.001-07:002012-06-03T20:24:07.124-07:00Receive a Diploma from a certified School of Composting and Vermiculture<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<br />
There are also other paperbacks that may help you be more creative when it comes to recycling old items from your house, such as what this mother-daughter duo of “Compost By Gosh” did when they converted an old storage box into a make shift vermicomposting bin.But aside from being inventive, you can also make a profit out of being just as resourceful. You can take “Raising Earthworms For Profit” as a good resource and startup.

There are varied options for worms that are being sold on the Internet today. But if you’re looking to narrow down your choices, then Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm simply has what it is that you’re searching for. Earthworms from this 40-year old business are marketed in different forms: vermipods to average sizeworms. So if you’re thinking about raising and breeding your own soil creatures from scratch, purchasing a batch of Vermipods is just the thing for you.<br />
<br />
<b>What are Vermipods?</b><br />
<br />
Vermipods are perfect for the ‘worm-shy composter’, as these clay-encapsulated worm eggs don’t start as slimy and wiggly creatures just yet. The clay substance that helps coat the baby worms are actually packed with nutrients. Each Vermipod also contains one capsule, and one capsule is equivalent to more or less twenty eggs. So if there are about 50 Vermipods, you can expect to have at least 2,000 worms hatching from their cocoons soon after. <br />
<br />
<b>How to use and apply these Vermipods on your lawn or garden</b><br />
<br />
Now, if you’re too squirmy about handling these ‘guts from the earth’from Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm, then it’s best that you turn to vermipods to help you jumpstart your vermicomposting journey. These clay-encased eggs can be spread evenly on your lawn, garden or composter. It’s like spreading grass seeds but way better, since you’ll no longer be required to water these afterwards. You can leave it as is, and just wait for the baby worms to start hatching from their clay ‘shells’.<br />
<br />
It is also advisable to apply one Vermipod per square yard. You can also expect that per order of these clay-encased eggs from Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm , you will receive a mixture of 5 different earthworm species inside each egg.</div>UncleJims WormFarmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04720231125701241210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8863114191027600125.post-48924489986998909702012-06-01T04:17:00.000-07:002012-06-01T04:19:43.117-07:00Uncle Jim s Worm Farm : What to expect from Worm Kit purchases made online<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

There are a lot of live earthworms in the market today. Some are used for composting, for fishing and even as a feed for animals such as birds and fish. Now, the variation of worm species is also great in number. But only two kinds come out as more versatile soil creatures – the Red Wigglers and the Super Reds.<a href="http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20120528215956AApLnwI" target="_blank">Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm</a> offers these ‘miracle workers’ at a very low price, which is highly a good catch in today’s striving economy.<br />
<br />
The best worm type in town – The Red Wiggler Worms<br />
<br />
If you’re looking to put up a business that concerns selling earthworms, then you should definitely try raising and breeding Red Wigglers from <a href="http://www.facebook.com/unclejimswormfarmunclejims" target="_blank">Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm</a>. You can also rear these for your personal gain, as this type of creature is very easy to manage. Now aside from that, you can also harvest their castings and use these as a garden supplement to help improve your plant and soil structures. Compost that is produced by red wigglers is packed with essential nutrients and other trace minerals (made possible by the organic food that they consume). These soil creatures actually work by breaking down decomposing organic debris into a finer and more nutritious material.<br />
<br />
Red Wigglers have also been recognized to have the ability to eat half as much of their own weight daily. They efficiently work by converting decaying natural refuse, digesting these and excreting these remains into a nutrient filled organic compost. But aside from their eating prowess, these soil wonders are also known to be prolific creatures. They love being kept in dark and moist surroundings. That’s why providing them with a composter (with ample ventilation and drainage holes) with just the right amount of damp bedding and food materials keep them dynamic.<br />
<br />
The composting and fishing earthworm – Super Red Worms<br />
<br />
Uncle Jim’s Worm Farm also offers Super Red earthworms (also known as the European Nightcrawlers, Japanese Tiger Worm, Belgian Worm, etc.). A very prolific breeder and easy to raise specie, these soil burrowers can be used for composting, but is generally used more for fishing means. The ‘can’t go wrong worm!’ Super Reds can also grow up to an average length of 5 inches. Also a favorite fish bait, this earthworm type can certainly survive long periods while being submerged underwater.</div>UncleJims WormFarmhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04720231125701241210noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8863114191027600125.post-84915626212423965202012-05-27T02:49:00.003-07:002012-05-27T02:56:19.974-07:00Composting 101:What are your Compost Bin options?
