*Sorry about the music at the start ... I have no idea where that came from lol ...
Started with 30 worms the same as the Tea Bag only worm bin, but over the same period of time and in the same place and same conditions, this bin has thrived by comparison to the tea bag only worm bin with at least a 10 fold increase in population in 23 weeks. I had to stop counting at 500 after making several passes through the cardboard because I ran out of time. My best guess is there is at least another 100 worms in there - tiny ones in between the folds of the cardboard. There is also noticeably more cocoons in the cardboard compared to the tea bag bin. All in all I would say in a single medium bin, the worms would do much better in cardboard only rather than in tea bags or coffee only.
