oops... i think i put in too many scraps yesterday, and its only been 3 days. But the tomato was disappearing pretty quickly and the worms were on top of the tomato, eating i presume...

its not really moisture like - dripping liquid, but just very damp in a humid kind of way... ah well, i'm just gonna leave it outside where I'm less tempted to peer into it. It's in the shade of a two large trees and a banana plant... so I'm thinking it should be relatively cool. no potted plant on top, but plants all around.. does that help?

Maybe i need a bin with more surface area. I guess I'll do that when these worms multiply and I need to find a bigger place for them... My dad suggested I just take the top off to let the heat out. But i'm worried about flies.

I guess I'll check in on them and see what happens. I'm beginning to realise it will be months before I have anything able to cope with ALL the vegetable scraps we generate in my house though... (5 people, big veggie eaters)

Thanks badger!
