..... and don't forget that donkeys and horses inside also give off lots of heat - think of the Holy Family in the cozy manger at Christmas time.

Aerobic compost is what people usually mean when they say compost. (These days there are so many ways of composting I just wanted to be specific).
it is just putting waste to a container (better success if you pay attention to Carbon:Nitrogen ratio, or browns and greens as people talk). Core of the process is microbes (aerobic ones). They like to live in moist, warm environment with oxygen. They eat the waste and produce heat and co2.
Mixing or turning the compost is a way to give them oxygen. (without this the aerobic microbes die and an-aerobic microbes take over - this means rotting and produces stench). Also turning is a way to regulate the heat levels within compost as core of the compost gets 'too' warm.
Composting indoors is bit trickier than outdoors due to space limitations. Outdoors the compost can be nearly as simple as small stall of garbage that decomposes. core of the pile is where the microbes work and outer layers act as insulation for the core.
Indoors a plastic container is needed - ideally with some insulation to help the compost reach ideal temperature. 50 Gal plastic barrel or something like that? Larger compost is easier to get running and we do need volume as we desire the heat it gives.
With quick search (outdoor compost):
"
Normal Heating
The ideal internal temperature for an active compost pile is between 90 degrees and 140 degrees Fahrenheit (see References 1). In general, a compost pile must be at least 3 feet tall, 3 feet wide and 3 feet deep before the center will reach this temperature range (see References 3). Several factors may cause fluctuation of the core temperature of the compost, including the composition of the compost, outside temperature and aeration of the pile (see References 4).
Why Does Compost Heat Up?
Aerobic bacteria are responsible for the process of turning organic waste into compost. These organisms thrive in a moist environment with access to oxygen and a combination of materials high in carbon and nitrogen. The bacteria use nitrogen and oxygen to break down high-carbon materials like wood or paper in a chemical process that produces heat as a side effect. The process is more efficient than anaerobic decomposition and produces no smell. (See References 5, page 30 to 31)"
The idea is to make a concentrate for our buddies wife.she dying of cancer and can't smoke
Well, you could pull the seeds and make RSO
but you may as well do it on a silkscreen though you will get triches that way
There are usually people around maybe youre local area doing RSo donations
If you have a local med marijuana forum you may find something you can get right now donated
phoenixtears.ca is a good place to get the dosages and directions on making the oil

I wouldnt dare trust a local cbd anything unless i knew them personally some stuff has been tested independently and came up zero cbd or full of fillers pesticides etc etc...
Thats a great start 5 plants, Oil, and all that....
Will be an interesting 'Croptober' for sure this time with all the so called "hemp" coming down which is some real serious bud in some cases

We hope!
Yeah and that's the thing.nobody knows a damn thing about cbd or cannibis here.its all new.its a pipe dream but the farmer I'm staying with is toying with the idea of getting a license and growing a ton of plants and making oil.i don't know the details but that would be cool I guess.im not gonna be a part of it.im more concerned about my house winterized.otherwise I'm gonna freeze to death.well I can buy some box heaters though.sorry but I'm not to keen on the compost idea just yet! But I will if I have too! Lol

Ive had good success with a peppermint based product called Plant Therapy.
Been using it in the garden about a year and on several construction projects where mold was present. The brochure that came with free sample cited its use in hurricane katrina clean up.
Works well, non toxic to humans and smells nice.
Pm me an address and i will send some if interested.
