Harvesting castings is fun and a hands dirty experience. It helps if you like worms. They are lovely and sweet creatures. Start loving them and you'll love the harvesting time.

It's easiest to do in the daytime.

1. Leave the lid off. Worms hate sunlight so they will burrow down to where it's dark. Give it some time (half an hour or more) and then scrape a layer of worm castings into a bin. Sift through them a bit, and put any renegade worms back in the worm bin.
