| 0:00.0 | What's going on everyone? Welcome back to the Epic Gardening Show. It's Kevin here and I hope you're having a good day. |
| 0:05.4 | Today we're talking with Emily the Crazy Worm Lady and we're talking about the types of worms she raises and some of their |
| 0:13.9 | benefits and downsides. We've talked before, like I said, about how red wigglers are the go-to composting worm, |
| 0:18.4 | but there are Indian blue worms, there are African and European night crawlers, |
| 0:22.1 | et cetera, and why would you want to choose those over? or African and European night crawlers, etc. |
