Description

Bioactive substrate made with worm castings and isopod frass is a highly nutritious and organic material that is commonly used in gardening and agriculture as a soil amendment. Worm castings are the rich soil that is produced by earthworms as they digest organic matter, while isopod frass is the waste product of isopods, commonly known as pill bugs or roly-polies.

When these two materials are combined, they create a powerful blend of nutrients and microorganisms that can help to boost plant growth and overall health. Worm castings are known for their high levels of beneficial bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms that help to improve soil structure, increase nutrient availability, and promote root growth.

Isopod frass, on the other hand, is rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which are essential nutrients for plant growth. Additionally, it contains beneficial microorganisms that can help to break down organic matter and release nutrients into the soil.

When used as a soil amendment, bioactive substrate made with worm castings and isopod frass can improve soil health, increase plant growth and yield, and reduce the need for synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. It is also an eco-friendly option, as it is made from organic waste materials and does not contribute to environmental pollution or degradation.

At Misfit Farms, we reuse and upcycle everything we can; and our bioactive substrate is no exception. To make this organic substrate, we combined bioactive soil composed of manure, compost, earthworm castings, isopod frass, kelp meal, and a dash of molasses (gets the microbes going crazy), plus sphagnum and mountain mosses to aid in moisture retention. Each batch is made to order to ensure you are getting live bacteria (bioactive), so no two bags will look exactly the same. Available in one or two-gallon increments.
