Vermicompost is a natural fertilizer that can enhance and amend soil conditions for vigorous plant growth. It contains essential nutrients and trace elements in simple forms, making them easily absorbable by plants.
To use vermicompost, it is recommended to mix it with soil before planting, or use it as a top dressing on already planted areas. It can also be brewed into a tea and used as a liquid fertilizer. The application rate will vary depending on the specific plant and soil conditions, but a general guideline is to use about 10-20% vermicompost in soil mixtures or 1-2 cups per square foot of planting area as a top dressing.
