CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Red worms are raised in soil (red worms are raised in soil or water)

1. How to keep red worms alive permanently?

There are many ways to raise red worms. Here I share a simple and practical method of raising red worms using a flower pot.

1. Put a round sponge at the bottom of the flower pot (wet the sponge in water first), put some soil for raising earthworms on the sponge, sprinkle some water on the soil and mix well, not too much water. Spread the purchased red worms on the soil. Get a sponge about 2 cm thick that is as big as the mouth of the flower pot, soak it in water and squeeze it with both hands to make sure there is not too much water in the sponge, and cover the red worms.

2. Place the flower pot in a plastic basin and add three centimeters of water to the plastic basin.

3. Place the plastic basin in a cool and ventilated place, and avoid exposure to the sun; add some water to the plastic basin regularly to keep the water three centimeters deep. In this way, the water in the plastic basin can continuously seep into the bottom of the flower pot, then seep into the sponge at the bottom of the pot, and then seep into the nearby soil through the sponge, so that the soil is always moist, and the red worms can not only survive, but also absorb nutrients in the soil to grow. Regularly soak the sponge covering the red worms in water, squeeze out excess water, and then cover it. When it freezes in winter, place the plastic basin in a non-freezing place indoors to prevent the red worms from freezing to death, and do not cover the flower pot tightly without ventilation to suffocate the red worms.

2. Can red worms be raised in the soil?

No, it can only be kept in water.

3. Can I keep the red worms I bought in the soil of a flowerpot?

Red worms cannot be raised in potting soil, because red worms are aquatic organisms, living in the mud at the bottom of the ditch. In the potting soil, the soil lacks water and is relatively dry, and lacks food nutrition, so the worms will die. Red worms are a favorite bait for anglers, and are usually raised in a bucket. You can also dig a hole in potatoes or radishes, put the red worms in the hole, seal it, and store it in the refrigerator for about a week. It is still fresh.

4. How to breed red worms?

Step/Method 1

When breeding red worms, prepare a glass container, put the selected red worms into it, and then inject clean and sterile natural water. If you want to use tap water for breeding, it is best to expose the tap water to the sun for 2-3 days to remove the chlorine in it to prevent poor growth of the red worms.

Step/Method 2

Control light source

The growth of red worms cannot be separated from light. Lack of light source will cause the red worms to have difficulty breathing and suffocate to death. When breeding, it is best to hang a 5-watt light bulb above the container to provide the red worms with sufficient light, allowing them to breathe freely and grow healthily.

Step/Method 3

Water quality control

When breeding red worms, the water should be changed once a day to keep the water clean. In the process of changing the water, the red worms and the container should be cleaned to remove the mucus to avoid the breeding of bacteria. The breeding water depth should be controlled at about 3-5 cm, and the water level should be deepened at night to keep warm.

Step/Method 4

Feeding. Red worms mainly feed on organic debris in the soil, and they particularly like sweet and acidic baits. Poultry manure, domestic sewage, etc. are all their baits. In professional farms, rice bran, sawdust, sludge, pigeon manure and other raw materials are generally fermented to make feed. If it is a family farm, yeast powder can be soaked in water and fed. Feeding is also a key point in red worm production. Feeding in small amounts and multiple times can increase production. Generally, feeding is done once every 3-4 days, and 50 to 100 kilograms of manure is fed per mu each time. It is mixed with water and sprinkled throughout the pond. When feeding, pay attention to the amount of residual bait, and do not blindly feed more, so as to avoid excessive organic matter in the water body causing fermentation to produce toxic substances, affecting production.

5. How to grow red worms in fish ponds?

The site foundation of large-scale breeding technology of fishing blood worms is an important part of it. It is built in a place with fertile soil and no pollution. Lactic acid bacteria or Bacillus are used to ferment and decompose human and animal feces into small molecular organic matter, which is then mixed with the soil of the farm to increase soil fertility.

Before stocking bloodworms, use quicklime to disinfect and kill protozoan parasites and pathogens to prevent infection. After the drug has worn off, you can put in the cultured bloodworms. Bloodworms are saprophagous, and can grow as long as the soil is fertile and has sufficient organic matter. Rotten vegetables and fruits can be put into the breeding area for feeding. After the vegetables and fruits rot, the bloodworms will eat them. Bloodworms reproduce very quickly, which can easily lead to excessive density and squeeze and hypoxia, so it is necessary to separate them at a reasonable density and in a timely manner. The growth cycle of bloodworms is short, and as long as the soil fertility is good, it can quickly reach the specifications of commercial bloodworms.

There are many things that require human attention in the process of breeding red worms:

1. Red worms are afraid of heat. Too high temperature will cause them to die quickly. During the breeding process, the temperature should be controlled below 26 degrees Celsius to avoid direct exposure to sunlight.

2. Control humidity. The red worms should not be too wet or too dry. A sprinkler can be installed above the farm to cool down and adjust the humidity of the site when the temperature is too high. Drainage ditches should also be built to prevent rainwater from accumulating in the breeding site and causing red worm losses.

3. Prevent escape. In the rainy season, red worms will escape with the water flow. When building a breeding site, cement stalks can be used around the farm to prevent the red worms from escaping.

4. Natural enemies: Red worms have many natural enemies, mainly birds and frogs. Install bird-proof nets or use a separate space for breeding.

5. Disease prevention: Red worms are saprophytic and therefore easily infected with diseases. When breeding, the site should be disinfected frequently and the breeding density should be reasonable.

6. How to raise red worms in the soil?

Red worms like to live in moist soil and can be placed in a cool place.

7. How to raise red worms in foam boxes?

The method of raising red worms is as follows:

1. Prepare a foam box. 2. Dig some topsoil, get a burnt coal ball, crush it, and mix it in the soil, so that the soil is not easy to harden. 3. Buy one or two bags of red worms and throw them directly into the soil. 4. You can put some porridge in it, or knead dry rice into a ball and put it in the box and cover it with soil. The best thing is watermelon, cantaloupe peel or other fruit peels and leftovers. You can put them in. The peel should be facing up with the smooth side and the flesh facing down. 5. Put the box in a dark, slightly humid place, avoid direct sunlight.

9. Can red worms be raised in the soil?

Red worms cannot be raised in the soil, because red worms are aquatic, not terrestrial, and what is raised in the soil are earthworms. Therefore, red worms cannot be raised in the soil.
