Below is a progress update from our Highway 9 test site in Norman. The blocks with blue flags were injected with alfalfa pellets. These squares broke dormancy earlier than the rest of the field and the grass outperformed surrounding vegetation.
Below is are progress photos from our Castlerock Park site in Norman. This site has had issues growing vegetation but is now supporting grass and herbaceous perennials in the summer. We expect faster growth once the weather cools in the fall.
Below is our latest carbon injection machine. It is capable of rapidly injecting pelletized or granular material to a depth of 2ft. If fresh biomass like alfalfa or wood pellets are injected they will break down slowly into compost. We are in the process of making pellets from compost and experimenting with injecting biochar and mineral sands.
