i know fertilizer derived from human feces is used in the US, however its only allowed for growing cattle feed and other things not directly consumed by humans

compost, okay

Bradley

If you want to use human feces, put it in a compost bin with food waste and some worms

Bradley

Give it multiple months to process

It sucks living in an apartment for all of this ): can't grow much of anything

*Aha*

Zennex17
2017-09-21 01:25:52 UTC  

Aha?

Yung Koala

Right channel. 😏

Zennex17
2017-09-21 01:26:05 UTC  

Aha

If you want to grow stuff inside, keep an aquarium. You can use the water from it to grow stuff in a bed of gravel. The fish fertilize the crop, and the crop filters the water

Zennex17
2017-09-21 01:27:41 UTC  

What type of stuff would you suggest growing? I only have a studio apartment unfortunately

Bradley
2017-09-21 01:27:58 UTC  

Start with herbs

Bradley
2017-09-21 01:28:09 UTC  

Cilantro, chives

Bradley
2017-09-21 01:28:23 UTC  

And a small aquarium with some goldfish or koi

is there any vegetables that would grow well in places like indiana?

Zennex17
2017-09-21 01:29:00 UTC  

How would you suggest making the gravel pit? Like what sort of frame?

Zennex17
2017-09-21 01:29:08 UTC  

I've got carpet so it can't be on the floor

Bradley
2017-09-21 01:29:25 UTC  

Just a small Tupperware container will work fine

Bradley
2017-09-21 01:29:42 UTC  

You'll want some sitting water just below the level of the gravel

Zennex17
2017-09-21 01:30:23 UTC  

Would dirt/soil work as well, as opposed to the fish tank?

Bradley
2017-09-21 01:30:33 UTC  

It's called aquaponics farming

Bradley
2017-09-21 01:30:49 UTC  

It would. The appeal of the fish tank is that its cleaner for inside

Bradley
2017-09-21 01:31:03 UTC  

But a little box with soil would work fine too

Zennex17
2017-09-21 01:31:30 UTC  

Alright! Tomorrow I'll go the store and look around a bit and see what I can find. I'll keep you all updated

Bradley
2017-09-21 01:31:43 UTC  

One problem with the soil however- you have to make sure it stays fertile

Zennex17
2017-09-21 01:32:04 UTC  

How would you test for that?

Bradley
2017-09-21 01:32:21 UTC  

That part I'm not sure about

Zennex17
2017-09-21 01:32:42 UTC  

Well, what makes soul fertile?

ram3n
2017-09-21 01:32:50 UTC  

nutrients in the soil
