How much liquid should my bin produce?Updated a month ago

The bin will produce about half a litre (one pint) of liquid a day when it has a full worm population and is fed regularly. It is important that the liquid is free to drain from the bin at all times.

If liquid from your bin is not collecting in the drip tray, it may be too dry. See Should I add water? above. The filter tray may also have become blocked with paper or plastic if this has been placed in the bin. Remove the floor and check the filter.

Check that the bin is not exposed to intense sun for long periods and move to a shadier spot if necessary. 

The liquid fertiliser should be mixed 1 part with 10 parts water before being sprinkled onto the soil around plants.
