Worm Castings and Liquid Concentrate
Envirocast Pure Worm Castings and Liquid Concentrate
Envirocast is pure Vermicast (worm castings), nothing else, It does not contain worms or egg capsules; It is the naturally organic by-product of earthworms.
We must stress however, there is enormous difference between Vermicompost and Vermicast.
Vermicompost is a combination of compost and worm cast, which contains live worms and their egg capsules. Often it also contains nematodes and partially composted material such as viable weed seed.
Envirocast Liquid Concentrate is the naturally organic by-product of earthworms, it is the concentrated liquid that is accumulated and recycled through our worm farms.
Envirocast Liquid Concentrate is rich in natural nutrients and beneficial microorganisms. It is environmentally safe and contains stimulants and essential trace elements that benefit plants and encourages microbes to establish and flourish in foliage and the root zone.

Envirocast compared to Chemical Fertilisers
Soil can often be low in “organic matter” from the application of man-made fertilisers.
Our alternative from “nature”, the humble worm re-balances the natural eco-system.
Envirocast as an organic fertiliser that can be used by organically certified growers.
It promotes a healthy soil food web and helps retain moisture. It
holds the moisture in the root zone while allowing the excess to drain
away. The sustained release action keeps the nutrients from being
leached away.
Envirocast pure earthworm cast, provide 100% of the nutrients and minerals required for healthy turf, ornamentals and garden fruit & vegetables. Envirocast pure compost worm cast contains rich proportions of water-soluble nutrients. This is a primary reason for being able to provide incredible results.
The trace elements in Envirocast combined with its structure and high microbial activity allow it to out perform chemical fertilisers.
Chemical fertilisers
Chemical fertilisers provide only available synthetic nutrients, much of which are quickly lost out of the root zone with watering. Such fertilisers are detrimental.
They destroy beneficial organisms needed for a healthy soil.
Chemical fertilisers, pesticides and herbicides used on farms, golf courses and gardens are one of Australia’s causes in contamination of rivers, streams and estuaries as well as our ground water.
Plants ARE pH dependant and may only utilise 10% or less of the chemical fertiliser.
This results in frequent applications, which 90% will end up polluting our waterways and ground water.
