Vermicast Supplier in Bulacan

Most avid gardeners have heard of or have tried the benefits of vermicast, or worm poop in their garden.  It's a very good fertilizer that gives good growth for plants and it doesn't burn.

Buying per 10kg or 1kg packs seems a bit on the expensive side if you are doing a large portion of your garden.  There are farms in Bay in Laguna but I am from the north so going to Bulacan is my best option.

I saw their olx.ph post about a vermicast supplier and have visited their farm in Meycauayan, Bulacan.  Elias, the care taker was very accomodating and helpful.  He even discussed to me how to start my own small worm farm.  They are using cow manure and vegetable and plant scraps as food for the African Night Crawlers.

Their price is 350 pesos for a 50kg sack of pure vermicast.  Some sellers put soil or compost in their vermicast so he showed me how to test it.  What you do is you squeeze the vermicast with your hand then release.  If it crumples, then you probably have fillers.  If it again crumbles into small bits, then you have pure worm poop.

You can contact them if you need vermicast in sacks or larger quantity.  They also sell African Night Crawlers by the kilo for 350.

First post!

Welcome to my simple blog!  I am a network engineer as my day job working for a telecommunications firm here in the Philippines.  I have extensive 14 years of work experience working primarily with routers and switches and some virtualization and Linux on the side.  I have a lot of frustrations which I channel into the positive.  I am a frustrated gardener, a frustrated woodworker and probably will be interested to try out other things in the future.

Sometimes I will share things that I may find interesting related to my job, like a bug we hit or a nifty solution that we've discovered.

I will also post things that others may find interesting like, what I've found where or where to probably get/buy this and that.  Things related probably to gardening and woodworking.

I hope others may find some of the information here useful for whatever it's worth to them.

Thanks!
