Did not realize this. I will have to try it!
Late at night of course, my compost pile is by the road.
Anyone know if exposing yourself on your own property is considered public indecency? Asking for a friend.
- johnisgood 2y agoPee in a cup or jug at home and take it outside.
- anonymous_sorry 2y agoI tend to relieve myself into a watering can in the privacy of the shed.
- mc32 2y agoIsn't that what pisspans are for? You don't do it out in the open. If you have a farm, cattle would probably produce much more though.
- User23 2y agoI believe that there are barn designs that capture urine.
- bigstrat2003 2y agoAs far as I've seen that's just normal barn design. Cows relieve themselves (both ways) into a gutter that runs behind their stalls, and then when you clean the gutters it all gets spread onto the field.

- interestica 2y agoThere will be a few things you’ll want to do to minimize nitrogen loss. As soon as it’s out, it going to start turning into ammonia and as a gas, it will escape. (The ammonia itself has useful properties, and it’s why urine has been used for all sorts of processes in history(. Making the ‘outputs’ fairly acidic or basic will help keep the nitrogen from leaving in that way. Add vinegar so that the low pH will reduce the bacterial activity that creates the ammonia. Add wood ash to create a very basic environment (high pH) (you should actually get ammonium as a precipitate). Vinegar should also help reduce smells. You might wanna store it for a bit before depositing. (Unless you’re doing the direct deposit method).
- always-open 2y agoAre you saying to add vinegar to the urine and then wood ash to the urine?
- interestica 2y agoSorry! Those were the two separate options: either high pH or low pH. Adding vinegar is prob easiest and it’s what Rich Tree does.
