OUR STORY
Worm products for plant growth
Vermiliquid is a source of high quality, natural microbial enhancement for plant growth.
ABOUT THE MAKERS
Vermilife Australia is dedicated to producing premium quality worm inputs for all forms of horticulture, viticulture and broadacre farming, including home gardens and schools.
Nigel and Jo Croser have drawn on their rural backgrounds, academic studies and passion for environmental care to establish their worm farm activities.
Nigel moved from his father’s farm-machinery business in the Mid-North of South Australia into a career in education before embarking on a range of study courses by experts such as Dr Elaine Ingham and Dr Arden Andersen. His interest in landcare led him to a number of experts in this field, including Peter Andrews (whom Nigel represents in SA.)
Jo studied a range of biology subjects for her Science Degree and has pursued a role in education largely through writing educational books for children.
Building a sustainable future for our precious Earth and their own many children and grandchildren, feeds their passion behind the business.
ABOUT THE PRODUCT
Vermiliquid can be used as a soil drench or a foliar spray. For salad plants (uncooked food), use only as a soil drench.
Vermiliquid is applied to make available to plants a range of benefits such as enzymes, plant hormones, minerals and microbes to promote plant growth.
Benefits described by users include increased plant growth, improved flowering and a boost to overall plant vitality.
Vermiliquid can be administered to pots, gardens, vineyards, olive groves, fields and ovals etc by watering cans, sprinklers, fertigation systems and boom sprays.
Apply it with water (rain or dechlorinated) as a carrier, diluting it to 1 part vermiliquid to 9 or 10 parts water.
Mornings and evenings are recommended times for application to avoid strong sunlight on microbes and rapid evaporation. This is especially the case for foliar applications to give the film of liquid more time on the leaves to allow for absorption.
** Vermiliquid is not to be taken.**
It is best used fresh but can be stored for about a month in a cool, dark place.
