alright me and a couple of friends went fishing today for 420 we bought like three things of night crawlers. So I figured the dirt the worms came in would have castings in it so I kept all of it. We caught a bunch of brim and perch and a couple of bass. Well we got back to the house and I decided I would keep the fish heads and the bones and use in my next grow. so I went to the back yard. I have a bunch of coir left over so i mixed the earthworm dirt and about ten small fishheads and bones and some older lettuce into the coir and I guess I will stir this daily but how long do I have to wait to use it?

If you use worms you'll need to add some drainage holes so they wont drown. and you can add basically any food that decomposes besides meats and oranges (to much citrus kills worms) it works better if you ground it up because they'll eat it faster. And worms basically double in population every few months so you wont have to buy worms when you go fishing if you keep it up. I have a 15gal rubbermaid tub that I'm doing it out of and when I go fishing I just pull a few out.
Also keep the top covered and not to hot the worms will die. O and if you put drainage holes make sure you put another bucket or something under it that liquid coming out is a nice fertilizer.
You can also put used tea bags in there just take out the staple and used coffee grounds wet shredded paper they eat it all. The link below tells you just about everything a worm can eat.

I think they would use the saw dust to help them digest food if anything. U can split the container in half and just use half at a time when you're ready for them to switch sides just stop feeding the side that they're on and feed the other side. They'll all move to the other side in about a week and then you can just harvest the other side. Its called vermiculture if you want to read up on it in your spare time or something.

In it I explain how to construct a worm bin, which bedding to use, and which species of worm you should use and why. Hope it helps you. The process is called Vermicomposting.
