Desert Rose Care & Info?
I have one desert rose plant in my pot and i am new for it ,….i do not know about this plant so any one tell me how to grow fast and some care tips
How to use vermicompost for this plant?
Size of vermicompost add in a regular cycle?
This plant has flower in this time also tell me this is an evergreen flower??
I have found regular potting soil from garden centers works well. Do not over pot. The plant blooms better if somewhat root bound and it is less likely to be over watered as well. I have found my leaves turn yellow with both over and under watering. To large of a container will make it hard to do the right thing. They are a desert plant as the name implies, however I found they require more water than most cactus that I have. I treat mine like most of my succulents however this summer I had to water almost as frequent as I did with plumerias. More damage will result in over watering than under watering. To little water will result in very slow growth. Mine is still blooming and is about 3′ x 2′ x 3′ high. Spring will bring the most blooms. Most winters like plumeria desert rose shed most of their leaves. edit: They require a dormant period. It is unusual for mine to be blooming now. I speculate it was all the super bloom plant food I was feeding this summer. What ever mix you use be sure in drains well.

vermicompost for desert rose pot?

why thishappenn…i is side effect of vermicompost (i add more vermicompost in my pot)

To much fertilizer. Set a gallon of tap water out in the sun for one day. That’s water from the faucet.
Water your plants with this water method for one week.
It’s called flushing the soil.
As if to perge nutrients from potted soil so that roots don’t burn.
The roots of a plant are pretty much the same as its leaves.
Good roots make good leaves.
Whether it’s fruit, flower or foliage. Gardening is a creative sense of understanding.. .

How can I boost my worm population?
Today I inherited my friends’ vermicompost bin with worms. I took a look inside, added some coffee and gently dug around with my handy little tool. I didn’t see very many worms, but then again there isn’t very much dirt in the bin to begin with. Do I need more dirt in order to boost my worm population, or do I just need to feed them more?
This should be helpful to you with more info on that.

I just started a vermicompost bin…?
i have a ton of questions, i have it set up with 1/8 inch holes in the top and on the top part of the sides, i have shredded news paper,dirt,then more shredded news paper, i got red wigglers yesterday (like a box of them from a bait store) but i have a really big bin, so how do i feed them, i’ve just been burying veggie scraps in the soil, but how will the worms know where to come? should i spray the bin every day? how much do i feed them? and what is the right method of how to feed them? Thanks.
First thing is stop feeding them. Your bin could go "sour". It sounds like you have enough food for a while. The bedding should be like a well rung out sponge.
One guide line is 1/2 pound of food a week for every pound of worms.
It sounds like you have enough carbon based foods or "browns" , the news paper and enough nitrogen based foods "greens". It is the balance of these two things that will make a happy home for your worms.

Can I use vermicompost as an Aquarium fertilizer, If yes then how to use it?
Hi,
I am reading the chemical and biological properties of vermicompost, and found that it contains all macro and micro nutrients. So can I use vermicompost as a Aquarium fertilizer? If yes, then how to use it. The chemical and biological composition of vermicompost is as follows
Chemical composition –
pH 6.5-7.5
Organic Carbon % 20.43 – 30.31
Nitrogen % 1.80 – 2.05
Phosphorus % 1.32 – 1.93
Potassium % 1.28 – 1.50
Carbon : Nitrogen 14-15 : 1
Calcium % 3.0 – 4.5
Magnesium % 0.4 – 0.7
Sodium % 0.02 – 0.30
Sulphur % Traces to 0.40
Iron % 0.3 – 0.7
Zinc % 0.028 – 0.036
Manganese % Traces to 0.40
Copper % 0.0027 – 0.0123
Boron % 0.0034 – 0.0075
Aluminium % Traces to 0.071
Cobalt, Molybdenum Present in available form
Biological composition –
Total bacter count of 2.5 ´ 106 comprising of Azotobacter, PGPR, PSB, Actinomycetes. Also contains Gibberalline, Auxins & Cyctokinine in sufficient quantities.
That would be fine, just make sure you have a layer of either sand or gravel covering it– this will ensure that your tank doesn’t turn into a cesspool of mulch, nutrients, and other things you don’t necessarily want jammed in your filter. If you could find a fertilizer lower in nitrogen and phosphorus, it would be better, but the current stuff will work fine. I currently have essentially the same setup in my 10 gallon tank, and the plants love it!
EDIT: You can get potting soil like the kind the asker mentioned for about $5 and have enough to cover a 55 gallon tank, while it would cost upwards of $40 to do the same with something like Eco Complete or Florite, which aren’t even that easy to find and are poor choices for plants with delicate root systems (like Cryptocorynes).

What is vermicompost?
Vermicomposting is simply composting with earthworms. Earthworms speed up the composting process, aerate the organic material in the bin, and enhance the finished compost with nutrients and enzymes from their digestive tracts.
Millions of tons of food waste are buried or burned each year at considerable financial and environmental cost. Instead of discarding your food scraps, you can recycle them with the help of worms. Vermicomposting turns many types of kitchen waste into a nutritious soil for plants. When worm compost is added to soil, it boosts the nutrients available to plants and enhances soil structure and drainage.
