    An observation of vermiform composting was conducted over six weeks. In the first few weeks, little change was observed as the container was kept inside to prevent cold temperatures. In the fourth week, the container was moved outside to provide a warmer environment, but still no change occurred. By the fifth and sixth weeks, with warm temperatures and moisture, the earthworms significantly decomposed the organic matter as the composting process was complete.

    Long Term Investigation

    Vermiform Composting
    (in small scale at home)
    Observation
    (Prepared by: Namrata)
     Observation was done for six consecutive weeks.
     The changes are explained respectively.
    First week
     The required organic matters and
    earthworms were introduced in the
    container in the first week
    and no any change was observed
    Second week
     No any change was observed
    Third week
     A slight change was observed
    in the texture of the matters
     The container was kept in the room
    to prevent from direct sunlight.
    Fourth week
     The container was kept outside
    in the sun so that the temperature
    would be optimum.
     This was done because not much
    change was observed due to
    cold environment.
     No change was observed this week.
    Fifth week
     Due to the warm environment
    and moisture, more changes were
    observed.
     The matter was slightly
    decomposed by
    the earthworms.
    Sixth week
     Due to the warm environment
    and moisture, more changes
    were observed.
     The organic matter was completely decomposed by
    the earthworms.
     Growth of some tomatoes was seen.
    [The changes were not as expected may be because of
    less earthworms and the winter season]
