Worms
I want to add a bunch of worms to my garden, both for their beneficial
effects, and for fishing. My soil is sandy, and I have brought in at least a truck load of good compost, yet it seems only to be good for the first two inches. I have a couple of raised beds where it is a little better. I know that in a lot of the country, worms just grow naturally. Not so here in the desert. Do any of you do anything special, like digging a special pit, or burying a chest freezer to make them a special area that you can more economically make into worm habitat? And after that, do you compost it? Thanks Steve |

In part the differences is compost worms live in compost above ground and the earth worms in the ground I know this seems obvious but some people don't know they are different. There are other differences. In a desert I think you are always going have problems with moisture. D |

Dear Whatever: I notice you have taken to task a writer about whether or not a post is on topic, is spelled correctly, or is correct in some other minute detail. I would like to inform you that the post of Netnanny is already filled. It is held by Newton Fillmore, of Pacoima, California, although Mr. Fillmore is currently in a coma in a facility in Riverside, and has been for three years, eight months now. We just could not bring ourselves to demote him without a proper hearing and him being present. Please be advised that there are currently over 500 applicants and wannabes for the position. That does not include people like yourself who have broken with protocol and currently act like they are in the cherished position. If and when and if ever the post becomes available, you will be required to write an essay of no longer than 1500 words, single spaced, using the words there, they're, their, your, you're, and any others you can come up with in as many incorrect grammatical situations as possible. You must also describe the difference between "lose" and "loose" in 25 words or less. You must also include the reason that you think entitles you the lifelong right to hold this post, and review the rest of humanity on its daily heretofore unobserved unsupervised act of Usenet Posting. Steve 3rd Poohbah and Grand Mucky Muck of the Society of Netnannies. Addended by 4/19/2011 You forgot three of my favorites, its and it's, lightning and lightening, and to, too and two |

What makes this time different? And was I drunk or absent the day you were put in charge? Steve |

But a memory span of less than a few weeks must make your life 'interesting'. |

Your recall is not correct. You posted your question about worms under the subject 'Eatrthworms' on 7 September. I responded and in fact posted in that thread on 3 separate occasions. There were 9 posts in the thread so I did my bit to provide info. What makes this time different? And was I drunk or absent the day you were put in charge? You must have been drunk and/or have remained so ever since. |

All the posts from the last time you asked this question are still there right on my screen. I'd hardly call it 'research' to be able to count up to 9. I'm just too busy. As are others. |
