Day 23, installed a Wormery
What is that you might ask? Well... It looks like this:
And they turn your organic waste into soil! And yes, there are worms living inside :-)
A video maybe later...

Damn that's cool! What about some more info too? Size? How many worms? Where from? Price?
Yeah, it's quite nice! They are not so big and fit perfectly on a balcony (where I put mine) specific size is: 30 cm (H) x 41 cm (B) x 41 cm (D). I got two bags of worms with it, but I'm not sure how many that is! I didn't feel like counting them :-) But supposively the wormery is capable of managing the organic waste of about 3 to 4 people. So that's quite a lot!
I got mine here: http://wormenbakken.nl/tiger-wormery-2-laden/ Or actually I got it from my parents :-) It's about 90 euro.
Because of the worms the compost is not supposed to smell like much at all, so you could even have it inside. With the little tap on the front you can remove the liquid, when you dilute this liquid you can use it as fertilizer for the plants. And of course the compost as well, but this takes a bit more time...
Here you can see how to set one up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9cX15Wum6fQ
