Permaculture Station

Some Photos from the firts days and some that how is going on .. Build a house, grow food, get healthy is pretty simple, but it is a long journey, a long journey of ups and downs. To repair this old house(video), was just used low cost or recycle stuffs, like Cob(soil, sand, and straw), old bathroom glass, old tyres, used vegetable oil(treat the wood), rocks from the land/river, rest of pine, Natural plaster(quicklime,horse manure). In the external pyramid kitchen, the roof was made with advertising canvas, which were cut and pasted. This are all cheap or free materials on most part of the world, with some kownledge you can build a really strong Thermal House. Permacultura Principle 9 – Use small and slow solutions. Start small, if you have never taken care of a plant, start with a pot of spices on your window or garden, like parsley, thyme, oregano , all are good for cooking and excellent medicine.

I need to fix a leak on my hot water system, So i take the cob from the wall, soak in water for one day, mix with new straw, and reapply on the wall after fixing the leak. And for the the 3 coats of natural plaster I used hydrated lyme + sand + cassava Starch, and for the waterproof coat i used a coat of used mineral motor oil, but if you want something better buy linseed oil and mix with bee wax, that is the best natural coat that i used here. Precisei consertar um vazamento no meu sistema de água quente, então tiro o cob da parede, deixo de molho na água por um dia, misturo com palha nova e reaplico na parede depois de consertar o vazamento. E para as 3 demãos de reboco natural usei cal hidratada + areia + polvilho, e para a impermeabilização usei 2 demão de óleo de motor mineral usado, mas se quiser algo melhor,use óleo de linhaça e com cera de abelha, esse é o melhor impermeabilizante natural que usei aqui.
