Welcome Molly, I myself have only been raising redworms for just over a year now, actually, I?m not raising the worms; I?m after the compost for my garden located here in central Kentucky. However, I don?t have tomato seedlings growing, but medjool dates sprouting; not that I will have room in my suburban home for ninety-foot tall medjool date palms. Everything I?ve read seems to indicate that this is a good thing; after all, what you are looking for is high nutrient content. I?ve read that one can use up to forty percent vermicompost(VC)as a growing medium and still have viable plants; however, I?ve have my date pits beyond that point, actually, I start sorting my worms when I think the VC is complete but in actuality at about eighty percent composted. If I?m wrong I hope someone else can give us more information.
