Pumpkin Plants on Day 24

Our pumpkin seeds are now well developed pumpkin plants.  Today is day 24 and there is a vast difference between the one row without worm castings and the two rows with worm castings.  The pumpkin plants in the worm castings/soil mix are 12 inches tall, while the pumpkin plants in the regular soil are 4 inches tall.  This is perfect proof that our worm castings should be used as a soil builder to build and re-establish the nutrients in the soil.  From the pictures below you can definitely see the difference in the plants. 

You can see the pumpkin plants in the worm castings towering the smaller plants that are in normal soil.

See the difference from a birds eye view. 

Worm Castings vs. Regular Soil

I planted some pumpkin seeds 8 days ago in regular soil and soil mixed with our worm castings.  The difference in the soil was amazing.  But what is even more amazing is that on the 4th day, we had pumpkin seeds germinating in the soil mixed with our worm castings.  Now on day eight, all of our pumpkin seeds have germinated in the soil mixed with the worm castings and half of the seeds planted in the regular soil are starting to germinate.   Take a look at our videos on YouTube under A and B Farm.  Let us know what you think.  Castings will be going on sale soon.
