corn husks as bedding in indoor vermicomposting

Hi ...

my worm bin (an indoor Worm Factory) has been running for about 6 weeks, and i am close to adding a second tray.

Now that corn season is in full swing, i was wondering if i could use strips of corn husks as bedding for the 2nd tray? It would not be 100% corn husks, but mixed in with shredded paper. I had used coconut coir as bedding in the first tray, and since coconut husk is similarly fibrous, i was wondering if i could make use of it. (I live in an apartment and don't have an outdoor composting area to place the husks, and would hate to throw it out.)

thanks!
