I fucked up my worm bin a couple of times and had to start over.
And I learned that there are lots of foods worms don't like, which was surprising.
Learned about PH the hard way...

Yeah my worm bin was pretty much flop. Never really achieved what I was after. I wanted the juice and the castings. I think it was just too cold.I fucked up my worm bin a couple of times and had to start over.

Also I didn't love it as much as I could have.

Yea. Easy. I mix equal parts of peat base, compost and worm castings. Add a bit of garden tone and good to go.You guys ever just start with some decent soil and top dress with something like dr. Earth? And a weekly tea for the win. I haven't tried organics indoor, but outdoor it works great. No shit!
The worms get fed all kinds of goodies including alfalfa and kelp meal. The kids have a rabbit. Rabbit poop is good straight out the poop shute.
I add diatamacous earth for pest control and silica. I use other stuff but it works great with just the simple 3 part I start with.
Yeah, me too - try Sheep hunting some time, now that's roughing it bigtime.

I'm sure nothing goes to waste.Self composting worms? Is that a positive or negative thing in the world of decay?
My first clue that something was amiss was when I lifted off the top three layers and got a whiff of something bad. I may pull another tray off the bottom tonight just to see how many survivors I've got. It didn't get that cold, but we had a week where it got down to 30 every night.
It's going to be in the 20s at night starting Wednesday of next week. I'll have to bring the bin inside, plus two large fabric pots that are serving as quick-and-dirty worm bins to handle garden overflow.
If I don't, everything will freeze solid and I'll be fucked.

Just basic things. Little tinder and waterproof matches. Water tablets, emergency blanket, candle, flash light, whistle, signal mirror, folding saw and couple other items. Oh and a small first aid kit.

These are the best fire starters I've ever used.

Road flares also work well but they are heavy and can fail.
I typically don't bother with fire starters other than possibly a half dozen cotton balls w/ Vaseline on them in a zip lock.
We've got black spruce in the interior of AK and Sitka spruce here + alder & willow & cotton wood.
Even in a poring rain the Spruce will give you more tinder than you can handle & it's usually very dry as the trees shed water really well but it even burns very hot when moderately wet.
I like carrying a couple of sheets of Birch bark too - that stuff burns like it's nuclear.

With that kit you should start your own reality show.
You could call it naked and prepared.
