Re: Compost Bin Purity: Oh crap, how do earthworms work?

Hmmm, does this mean feed 0% worm 1% food... 1% worm 2% food etc?

Well, the amount they raise their alchemy by does seem to differ with feed purity, so not necessarily. But if you've got a wide range of purities for plants, yeah, would be most economic to increase plant purity as the worms increase in purity.

Yeah... i was just doing a quick look over, the numbers are really too hard to see in those images to do much more. Was surprised though at how little the change was.

Looks like a nice dataset and i'm looking forward to the bigger image.

* With the lead box you can ignore the last worm on the right, I didnt finish and I accidentally moved that worm so he didnt eat the one grass he had available

Damn, it looks like feeding worms suffers from a nasty weighted average too.

I guess I'll be feeding them 37merc huckleberries before I dare to use the really good stuff I have stowed away.

looks like they gain 10% of the alchemical difference between them and the food, anyone with non 25-all worms can confirm ?

By looking at Darkside data you re totally right.

And it works both ways, to increase or lower the purity.

Do you guys confirm that you should not open the container for some time in order to let the worms eat (in peace)?

Big thanks Darkside for the work, that helps a lot.
