Very interesting post .... I've never heard any of that before (Of course, I'm an old redneck and the wife is the gardener - so I don't read a lot about bugs, worms and such ) If you find any online articles confirming this, I'd appreciate you posting some links so we all can improve our decision-making processes as to whether we want to change our opinion about putting worms in our AP setup - and myself as well when we get back from the Summer in Montana

This is the kind of good info that we all need to learn to make things better in our quest for the perfect 'garden'
