I read the article - thank you for sharing it! I see that they say not to add too many worms, though , and to keep only a couple of worms per pot. I think that is where the problem lies. I have scores of worms per pot - they are breeding like rabbits. At this rate, it does not take them long to grind all of the soil up. Crying
