SI2

Storage Improvement 2 gives you the option to "Dig a Basement in this Small Warehouse". But slecting this warns you thus. 

Are you sure you dig out the bottom of this warehouse? 
It will increase the size, but may cause some minor pollution.

So I'm testing on a warehouse that isn't near where I do the majority of things that might cause pollution otherwise. It's not entirely issolated however and unfortunately, is near the sheep pen 2 that I'm watching below. Since I'm already getting unusual acidity readings from sheep pen 2 I don't expect to see much variation in acidity. But I'll continue testing it anyway. My current theory on the lack of acidity for sheep pen 2 is that it's near the sea and not too near or far from mines. This warehouse is slightly further away so might be effected less. Since I don't expect a single warehouse to be definitive of all situations (obviously the nearby sheep pen isn't like what I'd seen at the other sheep pen) I'll likely run tests for a while before and after on any warehouses I dig basements in.

  • 2009/04/24 Y1 Shemu IV-27 11:37 am
    • pre basement testing
    • 10/10 tadpoles survive
    • 1 acidity
    • 100 groundwater (baseline is 100)
      • problem: SI2 seems to be broken ah well, at least I've got a baseline reading before digging the basement =)

Here's a list of me checking in on my sheep pen daily

pen 1

  • 2009/01/23 5/5 sheep, 22 dung, 1 acidity
  • 2009/01/24 4/6 sheep, 37 dung, 1 acidity, Y1 Akhet IV-30 1:57PM
    • dung removed, no plans to make CC or burn firepit today but I like to keep dung under 40
  • 2009/01/25 5/5 sheep, 12 dung, 0 acidity, Y1 Peret I-2 1:21PM
  • 2009/01/25 5/4 sheep, 19 dung, 1 acidity, Y1 Peret I-3 2:56PM
    • ever since I started keeping dung under 40, acidity has been 1 or 0. I may let it go over that again, just for the record. Because the last time I did let it go over 40, I suddenly had acidity over 1k, but it subsided with time that same day after I removed the dung. It's not enough as 'proof' but I think it's likely to have been a cause.
  • 2009/01/26 3/3 sheep (no births? how odd), 31 dung (removed), 1 acidity
  • 2009/01/27 5/3 sheep, 14 dung, 1 acidity

  • 2009/02/01 3/7 sheep, 93 dung, 3001 acicity Y1 Peret I-22 6:01 AM ( odd that acidity went down)
  • 2009/02/01 4/4 sheep, 99 dung, 2501 acidity Y1 Peret I-23 2:20 AM
    • I'm taking the dung out now - acidity ahs been going down while it's in the pen, can't imagine what good it would do me to leave it in there.
    • I'm also going to lite my firepit today.

    • there's raeli ovens not terribly far to either side of this camp - they've both done testing runs (which makes sense because they're newly built) 1 was like the day before yesterday & the other was yesterday - so I suspect this acidity came from that. With luck they won't burn too often - not that I've really seen major problems with acidity... this is the camp that got up to 50k once & I was still able to plant flax with no problems.

    • someone's burning raeli nearby today, so there's likely to be an acidity spike tomorrow.
  • 2009/04/21 6/4 sheep, 56 dung, 1 acidity, Y1 Shemu IV-19 8:14 pm
    • yea sorry, i didn't log in yesterday - no acidity today tho so that's good (maybe the spike before was from multiple burns so close together to test colors? who knows - oh or maybe they burned the full 2 hours the first time & less this time cause they knew what color they wanted, that makes sense!)

    • interesting. I'll have to ask around if the nearby raeli ovens fired overnight ... a quarry showed up really close just yesterday but I'd have expected to see the acidity yesterday unless it went unworked until today sometime... I'll ask about that too.
  • 2009/05/03 6/4 sheep, 21 dung, 501 acidity Y2 Akhet I-21 8:57 pm

pen 2

Pen 2 is near a camel dorm owned by someone else, acidity due to dung might come from there.

    • planning on testing the dung/acidity thing here, it's near open water & a few trees & not terribly far from mines (tho shows no heavy metal - might be due to mines nearest being unused)

    • I find it interesting that this pen never shows acidity dispite all the dung in it but if I leave more than 40 dung in the other pen, the acidity starts to rise. Perhaps it has to do with proximity to this body of water. This pen is very close to both water and mining. The other is not far from water, but still further away than this one is. And while there's mines nearby, they are sand mines.

    • to commmemorate my sheep producing 1k dung, I think I'll try this other acidity charting thing I found elsewhere on the wiki. Though, I don't expect to find anything. But I thought I ought to make certain that I'm not polluting a nearby area.

The only mention of road here is when I was standing directly on it. It obviously passes thruogh the area but I didn't consider it terriblly noteworthy. Mines & such are mentioned when they are relatively near one of these 10 square points. I attempted to show if they are north of the point or south, etc. It may be a bit extra of data and likely very much useless. But at least now I know I'm not polluting the immediate area with my experiment. I find it interesting that this sheep pen doesn't produce acidity on its own that I can determine. I've a camel dorm right next to it but it's empty & holds no dung. Sheep pen 1 does appear to produce acidity. And with as little as 40 dung! It is situated not terribly far from water, but not as close as this one is. I saw somewhere else on the wiki that someone thought they were getting acidity when they had a forge or something like that, near water. I couldn't really say for certain that a sheep pen with dung in it nearby would counteract that... for all I know it's the nearby iron veins. Clearly more experimentation with more locations is called for.

Ariella#8

4331 -447 Y1 Shemu III-8 2:29 - 3:12 am

  • tryinig my usual flaXing area first. Before anything my acidity here is 2826 all tadpoles survive & water at 100/100
seeds first because I haven't got many =p
  • small samples - immediately after i seem to have no ill effects, same testing results as above
bah it's late, i'm work on this another time

4330 -448 Y1 Shemu III-10 4:00 pm

  • begining acidity: 1526
  • short term flaxing same acidity (seeing as this is lower than yesterday it's possible that it's just dropping back down from the raeli oven burn the other day - I kinda think the acidity is just a red herring anyway. It's not the cause of anything, just a symptom & a rather unimportant one at that)
I expect little to no problem flaxing here (just as I've had no problem flaxing here for ages) due to other circumstances of this location. To be thorough, I suppose I should run waterlevel & mineral tests too but I find they come out normal here no matter what I do (yay for picking good locations!)
  • both NG & OE grow here with no problem
  • groundwater & heavy metals come out fine (100/100 & all tadpoles live)

4331 -448 Y1 Shemu III-12 3:38 pm

  • acidity test shows 526 so I suspect the acidity in previous tests results from the raeli burn & is slowly easing off now.
  • If growing Ariella#8 were to cause acidity itself, there should have been some increase rather than the regular daily decrease.
  • just to be certain, I'll continue growing ariella#8 here for a while before seeking out someone elses variety of seed (I've heard Forgiving has a good one & Zaniac has a good one as well.
