Ok well my culture is here, right now i just have a
small box (about half a foot square) with an inch or
so of moist peat w/ some baking soda to reduce
acidity, and dumped the culture on top... It was
packaged in a stryofoam cup with newspaper on top,
taped over except for a little air hole. Upon knocking
the dirt or whatever substrate the worms were in into
my peat moss, i noticed a lot of little bugs in there.
They look like teeny beetles, about 1/16th of an inch
big and brown in color... What are these? should i
worry about them? What about my setup-- will it be OK
or should i add some type of soil to it? should i mix
the culture dirt into the peat or just let it on top?
I have the box top (hinge style) closed for now,
should i poke a few holes in the top? thanks guy for
all your help, happy halloween too :)
