    I've left the same comment on every video with that compost spinner, it's too exposed to the air. Compost heating is not that strong. Wintertime compost needs to be insulated. Dump it out and pile it between some rocks, then throw some grass over it. Compost spinner is for good weather.

      I have a compost tumbler outside and when it last year was -22 C (-7,6 F) outside I measured + 45 (113 F) in the compost so it works well in cold climate. But to get it working properly you need to put in a lot of nitrogen rich material not only wood and grass clipping. Food waste is the matter that keeps it hot. A garden compost with mostly grass, wood chips and and other waste from your growing needs to be on the ground so all the earth worms can come up and do the heavy work. This is my experience after about 10 years of composting my household waste. By the way I live outside of Stockholm in Sweden so we can get really cold winters sometimes.

    A good video for you, would be to bring an oxygen meter inside the tank, close it up with a sheet of plastic(of course have another person around), and see how many hours it takes for the O2 level to drop 5% while relaxing. I bet there's enough oxygen in that tank to last all night with no problem.

    • @johns2038
      @johns2038 3 роки тому +9

      The oxygen might not be an issue, but the buildup of co2 is. Even small amounts can cause dizziness and while you're sleeping you won't notice that and could even suffocate even if there's enough oxygen in there because of the high co2 concentration

    I spent a lot of time in the Nevada desert north of Elko mostly in late October. Probably not too far from CHB. The imagery in this video gives me goosebumps. Even though I've moved thousands of miles away, I can smell the sagebrush and hear the absolute stillness. A lot of people write it off as just desert, but it's beautiful there.

    I know starting a remote colony was hard work and took some effort. But your venture into making your own base really shows the amount of planning, resources and effort that go into it.
    The first colonists to mars (heck, even the moon!) are in for a lot of hard work.
    Looking forward to the next installment of the series!

    Just for setup and utility purposes, I recommend getting a BigBuddy heater and a couple propane tanks. We use them for winter camping in AZ, and they do a really good job keeping even larger tents tasty warm. Pretty economical on propane, as well. Just make sure to get one with a fan on it; for some reason some of them aren't coming with fans nowadays.

    Compost tumblers sound good in theory but a nice big pile on the ground works way better for hot composting, especially in winter. You want at least a cubic meter of material with the right amount of water and for hot compost during winter some additional heavy insulation (those branches would be a good start ) and a tarp or cardboard for cover. I highly recommend r/composting, they are very helpful and knowledgeable.

    Hi Cody,
    maybe you could use some acrylic mirrors (normally used for sun cooking),
    to heat up a specific area around your big white container,
    for example if you place some black painted plastic barrels with water in it,
    that could heat up a bit at a specific time of the day (for not using sun tracking motors)
    and store the energy produced due to the waters specific warmth capacity.
    Otherwise great video as always. I really enjoy the peace of these "Chickenhole episodes"

Anyway, since there were three of four indents sporting spikes, I suspect that the shape of the indent is conducive to spike formation. So be on the lookout for this awesome and rare phenomenon!
