it's middle_path and he owns this one on voat I think so have at her! Just please leave the content I posted and let me know if you've got any tips for my experiment :)
I find this unacceptable. I prefer waiting 6+ months with promises of automated transfers that never happen. Im going back to Voat.
alright, sub transferred, and you got a mod invite..
In regard to your experiment:
This probably doesn't matter much given the size of the container, but any light that gets through the plastic will discourage root growth where the soil meets the plastic. Wrapping or painting the outside of the container could fix this, but again its probably not a big deal.
Some tomatoes take forever to sprout, depending on strain, temperature, and depth planted. I still have seedlings peeking out 12-13 days after I first planted them due to genetics and planting them too deep. I'd give them at least two weeks before getting worried, and which point you could gently scrape some of the surface dirt aside and see if they have a taproot or not.
As for the worms, I say good idea. Worst case they die and act as free plant food. However if you ever try your hand at a worm bin for composting, be sure to get the right kind of worm. Larger worms like those generally like to dig way deeper than is useful for composting. I've always heard red wigglers are the ideal worm for composting, but other species might work as well.
Good luck!
Unless I'm misunderstanding, you're thinking I replied to the wrong thread? If you look at the other posts in this sub, you'll see the experiment OP was referring to.
Damn, that's service right there.
Imagine that shit, a sub transfer in minutes.
