Product Description
Help improve plant success in your garden with Wiggle Worm Soil Builder Pure Worm Castings!
Wiggle Worm Pure Worm Castings is 100% pure organic worm castings, unlike other brands that claim they are pure even when they’re not. Ours is not vermicompost that contains manure or uneaten bedding with a small amount of casting. With Wiggle Worm, you can be sure that you’re getting 100% pure and organic earthworm castings - you will see the difference when you see the dark, rich color and texture of our product.
It can help improve the quality of your plant’s soil. It contains tiny, football-shaped particles that help prevent the soil from packing - improving aeration and drainage to allow the roots to grow well. Aside from that, our worm castings can help increase the soil’s water retention capacity, so the roots can absorb the right amount of water they need. It is also a natural insect repellent because it helps control the population of plant pests such as whiteflies, spider mites, and aphids.
Worm Castings is OMRI Listed for Organic Use so it’s an excellent alternative to synthetic fertilizer. Use it as an indoor and outdoor plant fertilizer because it’s natural, odorless, and non-toxic. It’s perfect for vegetables, house plants, flowers, and more.
A little goes a long way with Wiggle Worm Castings because you only need a handful or ½ cup to fertilize or amend your plant’s soil. We recommend applying it to the soil above the root zone three times a year or to the hole during transplant or seeding.
We produce Pure Worm Castings in the UNCO Worm Casting Manufacturing System, a controlled environment, to make sure that our end product is pure. Our facility was developed 40 years ago to control all aspects of the worms’ environment all year round. Additionally, the live earthworms we use are fed with rich organic material so that the castings produced are rich in minerals and trace elements.

Worm Gold Plus has been my first choice brand for years. But with limited availability here on Amazon, I decided to look at other options. I received in my compost tea kit I ordered this year, a couple of pounds worth from a brand called Organic Solutions. It is also not listed in quantity on Amazon. I finally settled on the 30 lbs bag from Wiggle Worm and took a chance and ordered it. Sold By Amazon with Prime Shipping it was only $24. What a bargain for 30 lbs. I was such a good price with good feedback I had to try it. So now I have 3 brands on hand to compare. If you don’t see it listed for $24 be sure to check out “new available from other sellers”.
Here are some photos of all 3. And here are my observations:
None of the castings have a bad odor. All of them smell earthy and nice. They all have a nice dark chocolatey brown color.
Worm Gold Plus - The bag I have is much more compacted than the other 2 brands. I have to break it apart to use it. There are few clearly defined castings. It is a bit thick like clay. It takes a bit of work and time to break the clods apart especially for adding to your soil mixes where you may want a finer texture. The issue I have with it is that it is/has or is heading toward going anaerobic conditions.
Organic Solution - These castings were fine and moist and easy to flow thru your fingers after grabbing a handful. There were lots of little bits of what looks like woody material mixed in. If this material is there to foster and grow more fungi then I will have to say that it is my favorite. There are a lot of little critters running around that you can see with the naked eye too. These castings are produced in California by a family owned company in smaller batches. The food source given to the worms are pre-consumer waste stream products that are free from toxins and contaminants. It is high in chiton and microbes that use chiton as a food source. Supposedly these microbes will live on your plants and provide a deterrent to pests landing on your plants for dislike of getting eaten by these microbes. Also when worms consume chiton it is broken down into chitonase which is then absorbed by the plants and when aphids and the likes begin to feed on the plants that have chitonase in their systems, it as an enzyme will begin to dissolve their exoskeletons. High chitonase worm castings are an excellent natural insect repellent. Supposedly you can put them 1/4” thick on fire any beds to get rid of them! Well I tried it and it actually worked. 3 days later the ant bed was abandoned. I think this has to be my favorite brand of all. I limit using these to my compost teas and prized plantings. But to get 30 lbs worth would cost around $40 or more plus shipping. This is the best stuff around IMO, but I was looking for good quality bulk castings to add in quantity to my transplants and garden beds.
Unco Industries Wiggle Worm Castings - These are moist and of a fine texture. It is very consistent in appearance. It is produced by UNCO Industries out of Oregon. They have been in business since 1976. These are also very good quality castings. For bulk application rates these can’t be beat for the price if you order it from Amazon for $24 per 30 lb bag shipped Prime. I have ordered 3 bags of these this year and plan on ordering more. Thank you Amazon.
5 stars for an affordable, quality product. Just what I was looking for. Now to get that garden growing with some record size and flavored veggies and fruits. Happy Gardening!
