Earthworms!

Yes, I know I'm growing plants in pots. But it just so occurs to me that those plants would probably need earthworms. Actually, I'm not entirely sure that earthworms are the solution, since ants would likely want to visit and the earthworms could possibly suffer from those visits. But still, it's a nice idea. I've got a little composting experiment going on outside my window. Tossing any manner of bio trash out there, such as orange peels, banana skins, apple cores and the like. Still, I think that pile could do with some wormies. As for the seedlings, well...I just wish they would grow up faster. I note that larger seeds tend to beget healthier seedlings faster. Perhaps quality should precede quantity. Yup.
