Attempt 1 in Progress
I picked a spot covered in dense, tall weeds, cleared it, dug a shallow pit (only 6 inches because there used to be a gravel driveway. I used some newspaper and carboard to start a fire, added some logs, and once it was going, topped it off with all the weeds I collected. I let it burn for a ocuple of hours, and now have toppped it off with some dirt, it is a mound, and I dug some holes into the bottom for airflow (until the smoke changes colour). It is a pretty ghetto setup so far, we will see what kind of char i get out of it. I think allowing the weeds (or whatever green matter) to dry a bit would have been more useful, easier to burn, but fewer plants resins?I dont think I want super dry stock, do I?
I have read more since I started, i have an old stainless steel sink (2.5 feet deep) with a convenient drain hole in the bottom, maybe I should rig something up with this?
Any thoughts?
