Worm Gold® extract is a bi-product made from the high quality worm castings we produce.
Microbe counts in Worm Gold® extract are between 100-130 million colony forming units per millilitre of liquid. Extensive testing of our extract is done through Soilfoodweb & Environmental Analysis Laboratory in Lismore NSW. On farm testing is also conducted using our microscope & microBIOMETER. Recently we had our worm vermicast DNA tested. Results produced over 17,000 different OTU Bacteria species. Also 355 different OTU Fungi species.
Worm Gold® extract can be used as a seed dressing, to produce microbe tea, injected into the seed bed at sowing or in foliar applications. It is filtered at 200 mesh (74 micron) to accommodate all applications.

- Stimulate and improve plant growth
- Increase nutrient uptake to plants through the foliar and root systems
