Welcome to:

We are proudly announce that Global Worming will recycle all the organic wastes from Polar Greens and convert them into nutrient rich worm castings, at no extra cost for both parties.

This is a win-win solution because Polar Greens soilless mixture is high in nitrogen and carbon making them perfect foods for our always hungry Red Wiggler worms!

Let’s work together to make our planet a little bit greener by keeping organic wastes away from our local ...

How much we need to feed the worms depends on the size of bin and the amount of worms. Remember the 2:1 ratio for worms. Two lbs of worms is needed for one pound of food per day. The surface area of the bin should be 2 square feet if 2 lbs of waste in one week is consumed.

If we are going on a vacation, we don't need a worm sitter unless we leave for longer than 2 weeks. We could feed the worms a little extra just before we leave. This is the best part of having worms as...

After weeks of adding food wastes the bedding goes down due to a combination of worm activity and micro organism activities. Decomposition and composting are taking place. The large amounts of castings might become harmful to the worms. So if we see bedding becomes darker in colour, it is the time to consider harvesting the castings and changing the bedding.

If the worm bins are correctly maintained, worm population should be double every 2 to 3 months. To harvest the worm...

We are proud to announce that Global Worming has been selected as one of the top 8 new startup businesses in the year of 2016, by FM 94.7 a multi culture radio station in Calgary area.

The following picture was taken when Ming was attending the final Startup Pitch Competition on November 26 2016 at the Hilton Garden Hotel in N.E. Calgary. Go Global Worming go!

The easiest way to tell when the vermicompost is ready is when you look in the worm bin and most of the original bedding is gone. The original bedding will have been "changed" into a dark colour, earthy-smelling vermicompost. Vermicompost is a mixture of decomposed organic matter and worm castings (worm poop). The process takes anywhere from a few weeks to six months, based on the size of the bin and the number of worms. The longer you let the worms work, the finer and richer the vermicompost...

No one wants to eat wax but sometimes you just don't know. Go into a grocery store and try to buy an apple that isn't shiny. You probably can't. They cover all apples in wax because they know it will attract customers. People are naturally drawn to shining and glowing things.

So next time peal an apple before you eat it. Save the apple peals for your worms. Red worms love apple peals & the core. Plus the shinny wax may be toxic to human won't do any harm to the worms.

On Feb. 1st, 2016, City of Calgary increased the rate for commercial vehicle loads of garbage containing paper and cardboard, from $113 to $170 per tonne. That is an over 50% jump. So it is better to recycle your paper and cardboard before hauling them to the landfills.

Did you know shred paper and cardboards make excellent worm bedding? Did you know worms also love to eat the glue in between cardboard layers? That is because glue is made from cornstarch, and therefore, con...

If a worm is cut in half, will both parts grow back? The answer is "It depends". Worms do have a remarkable capacity to regenerate lost or injured parts, but this capacity is limited. Depending on where the worm was cut, the anterior end may be able to regenerate a new tail. The trail, however, can not regrow a new head.
