Pregunta: Lo habitual en España es que todo requiere ser aprobado según mil normativas que muchas lo único que hacen obstaculizar al ciudadano, "habéis tenido problemas para tramitar la cédula de habitabilidad" Yo quiero construir para mi y para mis hijos con los métodos de Earthship en la comunidad Valenciana, pero no encontramos aun información al respecto. Gracias.

Honeybees aren't attracted to Morning Glories. Butterflies and Hummingbirds are main pollinators. Other kinds of (small) bees and some moths will also visit them. They also self-pollinate which means they will send out pollen on their own. That's why you see pollen "crumbs" on them. Pollinators don't leave bits like that.

Combining a dome with the earthship concept is very cool, kudos! I would really like to know if it's possible to take it a step further: would it be possible to actually use just a self-contained dome - a monolithic one, say - as the basis for a working earthship? Monolitihic domes have some very cool properties in regard to a passive house design on their own, but would they be compatibel with the earthship, since their shapes are so different? Earthships are long and shallow to allow the sun to reach a large fraction of the interior (in winter), while domes are very deep shapes. Questions to ponder...

@cuevasdesolearthshipspain416 2 жыл бұрын

Hiya, interesting thought! I’m not sure if a monolithic dome could be called an earthship. I guess it would depend on how and what you construct it with. Ours is a dome sitting on top of tyres on an earth cliff. So there is the mass that an earthship has. The dome is insulated to a degree, maybe more insulation would be better. Then you need to allow as much sun in to heat the place but keep it out in the summer so it stays cool. You could easily catch your water from the dome and maybe install a planter...

@ghostbeetle2950 2 жыл бұрын

@@cuevasdesolearthshipspain416 Oh wow, thank for the reply! Yeah, that's basically what I was thinking, too. It wouldn't technically be an earthship in the original sense, but I'm hoping it's possibel to integrate many of the self-sustainability aspects of an earthship. Mike Reynolds (I think) described an earthship as a machine that carries out a handful of functions simply thanks to its smart design. Heating/cooling, collecting water, growing food, right. A monolithic dome could definitely do a lot of that, too, and it would offer its own huge thermal mass, with good insulation. I'm just not sure if the internal dynamics of a dome structure (for example the constant air circulation) would complement the "greenhouse" aspect of the earthship concept. Things like maintaining livable temperature levels inside, etc. The search continues!;) Many thanks for sharing your own awesome experiment!

WOW!!! What a clever idea. I already save my tea bags to use in collaging, and junk journals. I love them. I've NEVER seen anything like this. How in the world did you think to do this??? I don't eat much pasta. But I wonder if I could use starch powder instead??? I've seen people use starch powder for other crafty things. Can't remember WHAT! But I will see if I can buy some. I will cook myself some pasta in meantime. I hate to think of eating pasta NOT cooked in salted water. I wonder how this would work if I DID add a bit of salt to water. I add salt to my organic dyes so they don't get moldy. And it usually doesn't effect color or leave a residue. Its worth trying. I think if I boil the pasta water on very low, it would get thicker & stronger. I don't like to boil my pasta in small amount of water. I will do some experimenting. Thank you for this FANTASTIC VIDEO!!! I'm loving this idea. This is my 1st time to your channel. Austin,TX USA

Hi Barbara, the idea just developed from rice glue which I found too grainy and it was using the whole grain of rice. With the pasta water glue you get to eat the pasta and then use what was going to be thrown out - right up my street! Let me know how you get on with salt in the water. I’ve done watercolour paintings on these papers and they seem to hold the colour true. Btw, if you find the glue a bit too runny after you’ve left it for a few hours you could always boil it again to reduce it. Any left over glue will keep in the fridge for quite some time too

@cuevasdesolearthshipspain416 2 жыл бұрын

You’re welcome Fiona 😊 I make the starch when I’m cooking up some spaghetti. I use a little less water than usual and don’t put in salt or oil. You’ll need to stir the spaghetti a bit more to stop it sticking. Then drain in a sieve but once bulk of water is gone put the sieve over the saucepan and give the spaghetti a shake to get the rest. Leave this water in the saucepan to cool and it should be thick enough to use as the glue.

I use a normal spaghetti with enough water to cook it, but not lots. Don’t put in salt or oil and stir it more while cooking as the reduced water might make it more sticky. Drain in a sieve then catch the last drops over the saucepan. Leave for a few hours to let it stiffen. Let me know how you get on 😊

How do I make the pasta water paste?

@cuevasdesolearthshipspain416 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Edge, use as little water as you can to boil the pasta and don't put oil or salt in. You'll probably have to stir it a bit more than usual to stop it sticking. Then pour the pasta into a sieve (draining the excess water into the sink) and quickly put the sieve of pasta over the saucepan to let it drain the last bits of water. When cooled these should become gloopy and will make for a good glue. If it's still a bit runny you could boil it to get out more water. Once you're happy with the consistency pour it into a jar so you can store it in the fridge. Let me know how it goes :-)
