Does anyone know how this hungry bin compares to the worm inn made from breathable fabric?

Both are flow through systems, well made, from great companies. I'd pick either over tray type towers. The Inn is all cloth, and has more breathability than the Hungry Bin. The Hungry Bin the size of a large garbage can, and can hold a LOT of trimmings. I'd watch videos on how to harvest castings from both systems to see what you're comfortable with. The Bin uses 2 clips and a tray. The Inn requires handling the bag and using a drawstring. That might help make the decision.

How does the Hungry Bin keep everything from falling out of the bottom when you take off the tray?

Hello, I have had my Hungry bin for approximately 3 years and when you remove the bottom tray, the contents of the bin do not all fall out. The design features of the bin ensures this does not happen. When I empty the castings, ususally every 3 months, I place a tray or bucket under there just in case I need to catch any small bits of compost and/or liquid fertiliser that comes away. Hope that helps, you can always contact the company directly, if you have any more technical questions!

How much compost do you get and how often?

Hi Ruby,You are not getting compost soil you are getting highly concentrated worm castings every 2-4 months in addition to the worm liquid. You just need to sprinkle a small amount of castings around your plants and veg it is so nutrient rich.Cheers

If I transfer my old compost - with earthworms - into this and add red Wigglers, will they coexist? Or will it be wormy genocide?

Hi Carmen, Using existing compost and or a working worm farm to start a hungry bin is the best thing. This is because the bedding already has all the ecosystem established already, and the worm population will include adults, juveniles, cocoons so will establish a working population much faster. I suggest that you fill the bin 2/3rds to 3/4s full with a bedding like compost or potting mix, moisten it, and then add the worm population or compost you have until the bin is full. Over the first week, the material you have started the bin with will compact, and the worms you started the bin will move upwards toward the surface. The worms you have in your compost will be absolutely fine to start the hungry bin with, and will co-exist with any of the other worms in the bin. Adding red wigglers to the bin to boost the population will be no problem at all, all the different species of worm in the bin seem to all get along ok. The only thing to watch for is large numbers of pot worms (Enchytraeidae) which can signify the bin is getting a little acidic or rich if you see them in large numbers. The instructions that come with the bin are very comprehensive, and cover all these questions. You can also contact Greentools if you have any questions, they are very professional and great at helping customers that have questions. I hope this helps, Ben.
