   hello paul,

   I have been reading your posts about organic farming particularly using african nightcrawlers. I just came from Bacolod a few days ago and was told about your farm and website at vermiphil.com. I was naturally interested however I was told that I should set an appointment. Unfortunately, I had a few more days in bacolod and was not able to visit the farm. Can you recommend me someone here in Manila where I can learn vermicomposting. Just to give a brief background. I started vermicomposting with a kilo of worms in plastic containers in our house in Paranaque. I didnt have the area to make a raised bed for the worms so I opted to raise them in containers. However all the knowledge I learned is from the Internet and I would like to learn more by looking for a mentor to help learn this practice. Basically I put soil, wood shavings and grind up all our household vegetable wastes and put it in the container. After a week I put in a Kilo of worms more than a month ago. Also i observed that to feed the ANC I just put the ground up vegetable wastes on top of the soil and they would feed on it. I used to put it underneath the soil but it seems that it takes longer for them to feed on it. I just have an initial question. With that method normally how long will the soild be ready to us on planting? On the other hand, on your organic farms how long does it take to make the soil ready for use in the farm?

   Hope to hear from you soon because I am very excited.

   Thanks again and God bless!

   Pierre
