Hi friends and permies,

I am seeking this thread or article Paul posted a while back about his composting trailers/ composting bathrooms they have built for events and so forth, can someone help me find that thread/article/posting??? They were so cool and we are looking to do something like that. For the record I would also be open to buying something like that... but we can build it. Can anyone help link?

While im at it can folks please post the best threads on composting toliets, especially mitigating smell with the least electricity as possible?

We have been humanure composting about 7 years and use sawdust/biochar as our medium in a tub (human kitty litter box basically). I have been supplementing with an EM1 type spray to help keep the microbes smelling good and the smells reasonable in the bathroom. Im looking for more, for instance, good ideas on microbe sprays in the bathroom, best carbon mixes, and best clever mechanical systems for composting toliets. At one point I saw this awesome rotating carosel design there are many out there, please share the best threads or links you've got thanks permies.

Love,
Nom

Dear friends with much more experience.

What would be the best for this experiment or process?

I want to take a hori hori or mattock, open a berm, add X medium to fill the hole and jab a cleanly cut, scored cutting.

I want to try hardwood mulch finely shreded, sawdust, perlite,
Vermiculite, sand.

What do you think could work the best and why?

I want to do (1) step more than jab in the cutting, add a layer of X medium to give higher success rate. I am willing to try them all, has anyone done something like this or speculation is welcome . I just like to keep things simple.

For rooting inducement I will use natural herbs or probiotic sources please no worries about store bought chems or anything. In other words, dont tell me buy root hormone I like like non “labratorial factorial” ways. Thanks!

You can also fruit them in an indoor grow tent (martha) or terrariums for more efficient yields in a controlled  space.

Many have followed these guidelines with success and happy bees. However, as pointed out by some before, there are legalities in some areas that require removable frames and that can be tricky in this style of hive although some have fabricated a sort of hybrid and maybe more are to be created.

Heres a blog with the best pics showing the Anastasia hive constructed.

http://chopwoodcarrywaterplantseeds.blogspot.com/2012/09/anastasia-beehive.html

I am personally designing and prototyping a Warre, Perone, Langstroth fluent, Anastasia inspired bee hive. But I'm not releasing any details in the public sphere yet. Others are undoubtedly working on the next best naturlist beehive. Im a fan of the "Freedom Hive" and other work done by Mr. Somerville. Backyard hives, hexogonal top bar "cathedral hive" is another marvel.

I wish you the best and I'm happy to find someone posting on this subject not all that long ago!

As it so happens. We are also in NC state.

Peace.
