Fast growing plant for biogas or biomass?

[abyssin3]

La knotweed, exact!
(I read that the first post ;-))

compost management

It is classified among the vegetable plague.
For some plants I have read that it is advisable to dry the plants before putting them on the compost.
From my point of view it risks nothing. But you are warned.

We can imagine a basin into which the toilets drain to produce plants

You cannot pour sewage into pyto-purification tanks. You can pour sink, sink, shower, washing machine.
And each year you will have to halve your plants.
Unless you invent a new concept
Tape TLB on the forum to know more.
See you

And as far as biogas is concerned, most biomass is suitable (plant), what is important is to have a methanogenic strain of bacteria. It is not very difficult to find, there are plenty in the digestive tract of certain ruminants ...

So just collect a fresh dung and put it in the digester?

[Christophe]

Here, good idea to test! But this time it’s done: I deleted my shoots 2 weeks ago ... direction compost (while waiting for the digester ...)

I'll try the manure when they grow back

I announce that after a radical cut at the base (5 to 10 cm from the ground) in mid May, several shoots of this knotweed are already around 1m today. These are new shoots and not a resumption of cut plants.

good i'm testing the maceration.
1Kg of leaves in a volume of 10l + rainwater.
1-I will take a larger container next time.
2-the decomposition time is long compared to nettle.

Uh can you remind us of the purpose of your Toto maceration? Knotweed manure? Some gas? Of...??

[zac]

well of the gnole like everyone else; just distill after

[toto65]

Freshwater manure.
To test.
Gnole? Why not, but this time I'm not testing.
Zac? voluntary?

[zac]

why not?

In my opinion, Zac he drinks you the 10 L without problem ... finally after distillation ... before there is too much water ...
