Hold back on feeding them if need be as the worm farm gradually grows in vigour over these early months. With these "in-ground'' worm farms, we can expect temperatures between 12degC to 15degC all year round. This isn't near our optimum 27degC, but it is going to be enough for our less intensive "in-ground'' worm farm approach. I've been playing with the concept of having multiple in-ground worm farms, e.g., three to four in-ground worm farms (each in a 20-litre bucket) for a family of four. Shred and soak five large handfuls of cardboard and place in the bottom of each in-ground worm farm.
