I never completed the experiment. I have 3 partially empty ones I filled 2 days ago. I plan to try harder gathering the info. Using pulp, vegetables, and fruit to fill them.

I went outside to take some pictures for work and noticed gnats. They're not in great abundance to be annoying. I have seen them several times when I think about it, but again they've not been annoying. I don't see them in the morning or evening. It's 4 pm here in Denton, tx now.

I took a couple of the old pictures for completing the experiment because I forgot to take pictures of the first week, but it almost the same material for completing the experiment.

Has, Happy New Gardening Year! I stole one of your photos for someone who wanted to vermicast in small buckets in their garden. Laughing
