Vermicomposting is a process in which earthworms are utilized to convert biodegradable organic waste into humus-like vermicast. Past work, mainly on vermicomposting of animal droppings, has shown that vermicompost is an excellent organic fertilizer and is also imbibed with pest-repellent properties. However, there is no clarity whether vermicomposts of organic wastes other than animal droppings are as plant-friendly as the manure-based vermicomposts are believed to be. It is also not clear as to whether the action of a vermicompost as a fertilizer depends on the species of plants being fertilized by it. This raises questions whether vermicomposts are beneficial (or harmful) at all levels of application or if there is a duality in their action which is a function of their rate of application. The present work is an attempt to seek answers to these questions. To that end, all hitherto published reports on the action of vermicomposts of different substrates on different species of plants have been assessed. The study reveals that, in general, vermicomposts of all animal/plant based organic wastes are highly potent fertilizers. They also possess some ability to repel plant pests. The factors that shape these properties have been assessed and the knowledge gaps that need to be bridged have been identified.

“…It has been proven that vermicompost has a positive effect on the growth and flowering of marigolds. In the research by Kovshov and Iconnicov 18 , the application of vermicompost as planting media for marigold affect stem diameter, flower diameter and the number of flowers. The yield of photosynthesis (photosynthate) affects flower diameter.…”

Background and Objective: Verticulture is an effort to narrow land use for marigolds (Tagetes erecta L.) optimally. To obtain a good result, a plant needs suitable environmental conditions. Included in these factors are planting media and nutrient requirements. The purpose of this research was to determine the effect of planting media composition and fertilization techniques on the growth and flowering of marigolds in the verticulture system. Materials and Methods: The research was conducted on the 6th floor of the rooftop at Malang at 450 m.a.s.l from April-June, 2019. The materials used are yellow marigold seedlings planted in 5 dim vertical pipes, a mixture of media (soil, husk, cocopeat) and vermicompost as planting media, also NPK (6:13:25) 3 g/plant. We used a randomized block design with 6 treatments of Vermicompost (V) and Non-Parametric Kinetics (NPK) method application (Band Placement (BP) and Fertigation (F)), such as P 1 = 0% V+NPK BP, P 2 = 50% V+NPK BP, P 3 = 100% V+NPK BP, P 4 = 0% V+NPK F, P 5 = 50% V+NPK F and P 6 = 100% V+NPK F. It performed 4 replications and was tested using 5% LSD. Results: The results showed that 50% vermicompost and band placement can increase the vegetative and generative growth of marigolds. Furthermore, it is known that plants grown with 50% vermicompost and fertilization techniques of the band placement flower faster than plants grown with other treatments. The number of flowers is 60% higher than 0% vermicompost with the NPK fertigation technique. Conclusion: Therefore, to obtain the optimal result for the growth and flowering of marigolds, it is suggested to apply 50% vermicompost media and use the NPK band placement technique.

“…Using liquid organic fertilizers can stimulate plant growth, and fungi can provide a sustainable alternative to chemical fertilizers [10,11]. The advantage of LOF is that it contains growth regulators that can stimulate plant growth, thereby increasing plant production and uptake of micro and macro nutrients needed by shallot plants [12].…”
