What are earthworm castings? They are really earthworm poop. Earthworms will ingest organic matter and what is excreted by the earthworm is called castings and contains microbes and natural plant hormones, making an extremely effective fertilizer.
What is vermicompost? It is the compost that contains the castings

Lettuce growing in 20% castings. Casting Grow Anything!

- To produce our castings we use cow manure that has
been composted for a minimum of 15 days at 131 F or higher. The composted cow manure is fed to the worms and after 3 to 4 weeks the castings are harvested by screening through a 1/8 screen.
- Small fibers from the manure and occasionally some
worm eggs or small worms will fall through the screen along with the castings.
- No peat or any other non sustainable products are used
in our castings / vermicompost product. Black Star castings/vermicompost looks different from some of the expensive brands of castings but is as effective as any of the expensive brands.
- We have been producing and selling casting for over 5
years and have many satisfied customers.
