Why do they do it?
GEDC3685.JPG

I have only ever found dried up dead worms - R.I.P. my dedicated employees - so I think they crawl out at night.

Here's my theory. I have happy thriving healthy plants - this isn't worms evacuating an unhealthy place. Since this only happens after I put some castings into a pot, I think when the lights are off the worms are lost. That or an overcrowding situation where leaving is the only option.

Anyone with any insight?

How many worms you putting in there?? Most people seperated their worms before adding Ewc.

Something isnt right with your soil...or/and itz too dry.

What is the make up of your soil?

The pressence of wormz making a home and staying put is in my opinion a measure of your soil health...a plant can be...but not alwayz

well, I can safely tell you that worms don't mind overcrowding.. believe me..
but i'd agree with chronikool.
keeping in mind that worms and cannabis DON"T have similar soil preferences.
If you kept their "living conditions" the same you'd have some pissed off cannabis roots.
Probably those worms were upset that you evicted them from their wormbin and took it upon themselves to trek back home.

Worms naturally like to jump ship. From plants, bins, what ever. It's more common outdoors than indoors though

When I had my bin going I had to put a mesh screen over the top because there would always be one or two that had to escape. Never had them jump ship from planters though.
