[Strawbale]Earth/Straw plaster

[rikki nitzkin]

HI!

I have used earth/straw  (no sand) plaster as the base coat for my house and 
after two years without finishing the finish coat it is still holding up 
great!  I use about one:one clay soup/chopped straw and nothing else.  
Although this week I hope to get up the finish coat! (For my clay the 
proportion of sand/clay will be 3:1 to avoid cracks). According to your clay 
you may want to adjust the amount of straw . . .

good luck. Rikki
