Setting Up Your Subpod®


Here’s what you’ll need to get started:
  • 8 Large handfuls of bedding material (coconut peat, newspaper or cardboard)
  • An assembled and installed Subpod
  • A watering can or hose
  • Your Subpods’ worm blankets
  • 2,000 Worms (We suggest preparing your Subpod before your worms arrive)

  • Step 1:

    Shred your preferred bedding and add 4 big handfuls to each side of your Subpod.

    Dampen bedding with a watering can or hose. Be sure not to over water the bedding.

    Step 2:

    Place at least 2,000 worms and everything in their container evenly between the compartments.

    Step 3:

    Soak your worm blankets and then ring them out so they are barely dripping. cover your worms with the blanket on both sides.


Now you're ready!

Your new composting companions should have a nice home! Compost worms are very low maintenance, so your little guys won’t need to be checked on again until they’re ready for their first feed. In one week they will be ready to eat!
