This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEM curriculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the sand badge in Waste Streams.

Humans generate some biological waste on a daily basis.  Full humanure systems are nifty but let's start with something a bit simpler.  Let's try to harvest our urine and apply it to growies.  Year round!

 
(for some strange reason there aren't many pictures of these sorts of things)

Here's one way to do it.  


Minimum requirements:
  - Make a system to collect human urine year round to deliver to your growies
  - Low odor
  - Holds at least 1/2 gallon of liquid

Provide proof of the following as pictures or video (<2 min):
  - Most of the parts you're starting with
  - Midway through construction
  - Finished collection system
  - Explain:
        - How it works
        - How the odor is low or ideally non-existent
        - How you deliver the product to your growies
