Creamatic flowering? Wow those girls have bounced back and beyond. It’s like they never had a single hiccup at all. You’re in overdrive now.

Looking sweeet LC !UPDATE ....again. LOL
The wild Gorilla is all tied down and shouldn't be too tough to keep managed. If it gets too tight under that 4 x 4 light, I can always put the second one up and just use half of it.
Royal Creamatic is going into flower already. The 2 Goat'Latos...still nothing. Maybe I'm just impatient...but dang! C'Mon girls!
We're just starting.
You may already be there!LOL. That's why meditation never really works for me. I can't shut the thing down long.
The longer the veg for auto's is better i find, plants look great LCUPDATE ....again. LOL

Good Gawd. What DIDN'T I do during 2016/17. 
I still have these bins in the garage, I might get that worm farm thing going again.

Glad you are here MedicalNoob!
I forgot to tell you all, I got my winter worm bin going yesterday. Again, I used the tubs that I had planned for a first grow of hydro. The holes and baskets work out well, I can feed them and spray it down without taking the lid off. And they get air.
The bottom of the top bin has holes drilled in it to allow drainage into the bottom bin. There is a drain spout on the side at the bottom area, so when I decide to make a tea I can just drain it out from...

This was the DIY I followed for my worm bin, basically. I had made a few changes to it.
And another place for tidbit info I posted:

Love it!
But, 18 gallon totes!!?! Holy crap, those things must be heavy. Mine are 7 gallons I think and those are heavy enough for me come harvest time.
I built mine with three bins (and wish I had done a fourth) plus the bottom leachate container bin, but very similar to yours. I fill mine with mostly weekly kitchen scraps and then cover with compost. Takes me about 8 weeks to fill the top container and then they rotate down and just sit for another 4 months after which I harvest the bottom bin by dumping it and then spreading it out to dry a bit as mine are pretty mucky down at that level. The empty bin goes on top and the process continues.
Incidentally, there are different kinds of worms, some like nightcrawlers are deep dwelling worms that make semi-fixed holes in the soil and those aren't really suitable for our purposes. Ideally we want a surface dwelling, leaf litter eating variety like the red wigglers. Those convert kitchen scraps the fastest and breed the best for home bins, but other types of worms can also work.
The red wigglers are also called manure worms so if you know of anyone that keeps horses you can probably get all you want for the asking.

Yeah, if I remember right I started using red worms and then earth worms. I didn't continue with it because the garage was just too cold. Those bins were originally designed for a hyrdro grow which I did for awhile. They worked, but I lost patience with keeping the reservoir clean and contaminate free.Love it!

Although these weren't really heavy, the smaller totes would be much more ideal. I just used what I had already available.
Those night crawlers gave huge poo droppings. I was harvesting it from the garden outside. The whole top layer of soil was poo from those worms. LOL
