It got too wet due to the excess food. I was doing the bucket tower method and there’s not a lot of room for error due to its compact size.

Would you have added more browns and less moisture if doing again? I'm thinking a shallow and long one. Something like 2ftx6ft and have 1x1ft feeding area that rotates around the outside. How deep would you recommend having media?
Yes def would have added more browns if the buckets had more space. I can’t speak on recommendations since I had failed. The next go around I’m going to follow how The Weedy Garden does his. Wish I had some more info for you.
I did add a 5lb bag of reds to our Johnson sue bioreactor. They’re still in there doing work and I didn’t add anything once built. Once it’s finished, I’ll collect all I can and transfer them to the next bioreactor.
I was hearing that if you submerge a small container with holes and fresh food like banan peel or something the worms will go to it and you can collect them that way.
