About this item

  • [NATURAL SLOW-RELEASE PLANT FOOD] Never burn your plants or worry about over-applying. Worm castings are nature's plant food. The castings contain slow release nutrients (2.5 - 0 - 0), organic matter (47%), and beneficial factors that create the perfect soil support for your vegetables, fruits, houseplants, cannabis, and gardens: indoor and outdoors.
  • [FROM FOOD TO SOIL] Our composting worms eat highly nutritious foods made from diverted food waste from local businesses (sweet potatoes, broccoli stalks, coffee grounds, fruit peels, pumpkin, egg shells, potato, pineapple, and more) and transform it into a nutrient dense, natural soil amendment.
  • [AN ANCIENT RECIPE] Biochar was first made and used by the ancient Amazonian people to make Terra Preta (Dark Earth), a powerfully fertile soil.
  • [GROW MORE FOOD, MORE SUSTAINABLY] Every 1L of worm castings is created from 3kg of food waste, diverted from landfills. This diverts waste from landfills and returns the nutrients back to our soil where they belong. Our products do NOT contain peat moss.
  • [NATURE’S SOIL BOOSTER] Worms and plants have been living together and helping each other for millions of years. Harness the power of this pre-historic relationship.

My baby plant has been thriving since we decided to add this vermichar. I love that this worm casting is so nutritious my plants. I had many choices for plant food but ultimately landed on this bag because the brand seems to be doing some good things around sustainability! We love supporting Canadian small businesses. Buy this, your plants will love it.

I decided to spend a little extra on this brand to save one of my favourite houseplants that was dying during the summer inexplicably. It worked like a charm and I would recommend this to any friend!

I started some cannabis plants later in the season this year. As such, I wanted a natural plant food that could support their growth. I used Vermichar as I've read worm castings are great and I already used this brand's biochar product before. I decided to do a mini experiment and leave one of my cannabis plants unamended with thevermichar to see the difference. The results of the vermichar are incredible! About 2x bigger.

I had the privilege of trying out this product right around the time my plants we're being re-potted for the first time. As a passionate plant mom, who desires to use organic, natural & sustainable products, the Vermichar couldn't have been more suitable. I was especially nervous about repotting my 6ft corn plant because of the size, & how well it had been growing for the year that I had it. I really didn't want to do anything that was going to disrupt their environment. I used about 2-inches of the Vermichar as a top coat for all of them, & all I can say is, the foliage has never been fuller, my snake plant has been growing like weeds after 2-years of almost no growth, & my plants have never been happier. I'm so grateful for this product & would recommend to anyone looking for high quality, clean nutrients for their plants!
