Why is the surface area important in worm composting?
Worms need a good surface area on which to feed. Depth is not important after about 25cm, as the composting worms are feeding either on or just below the surface. A large surface area provides the compost and worms with good aeration, thereby keeping any unwanted odours to a minimum.
