Seed Starting
Combine 1 part Wormera Worm Castings with four parts peat moss-based mix or coco coir. Moisten well before planting.
Vegetables and Annual Flowers
Before planting seedlings, line the bottom of plant holes with 1-2 inches of Wormera Worm Castings. Topdress during the growing season at a rate of 125 ml (1/2 cup) per plant or 250 ml (1 cup) per linear foot of garden row every month.
Perennial Flowers
Work 125 ml (1/2 cup) Wormera Worm Castings into the soil above the root zone, taking care not to damage shallow roots. Apply monthly.

Established Plants: Add approximately 1 inch to containers. Mix in, taking care not to damage shallow roots. Water thoroughly and repeat every 2-3 months.
Roses, Trees, Shrubs and Berries
New Plantings: Fill the planting hole with a mixture of 1 part Wormera Worm Castings to 3 parts soil.
Established Plants: Use 2 litres (0.5 gallons) per inch of tree trunk diameter. Spread evenly over the root area and water.

New Plantings: Apply 20-30 litres (4-7 gallons) per 1000 sq ft. Rake into topsoil. Add grass seed and water well.
Established Planting: Broadcast 15-20 litres (3-4 gallons) per 1000 sq. ft. as a top dressing. Add 2-3 times per year.
