Reduce Water Usage up to 75% using Organics Alive Solutions

By using a non-chemical approach, water usage can be reduced up to 75%.  It takes four (4) years but it can be done.

Replenish Soil Biology and Organic Matter:

  1. Cover soil with ½” layer of Organics Alive Premium Mix, (pure worm castings and compost with rock and kelp).  Organics Alive Premium Mix can be applied at a full 1”.  Add sufficient composted chicken manure to equal 1/8” to increase the natural nitrogen.  Be cautious about using chicken manure alone it can burn plants unless added with the worm castings and compost.
  2. If the soil is bare, then till mixture in the top 2 inches.
  3. If plants are in place.
    1. Put the mixture under all plants and around the drip line of trees.
    2. Turf requires multiple thin layers to achieve the full inch.  Mix up the combination and apply less than 1/8” then water in weekly.  It will take 8 weeks to achieve this application.
  4. Apply Organics Alive Bioponics Tea at 5 gallons/acre once per month as long as the soil temperature is above 50F.  Use Organics Alive Extractors and cartridges.

Water Use Reductions after 2 Years

  1. After two years of  building up the soil compost, the water usage will decrease.  Usually the water can be reduced 30%.  Roots will grow longer to capture more water.
  2. Flow restriction heads can be installed to cut the flow.  Hunter MP Heads cut the flow ~32% .
  3. After year four (4) the flow can be reduced up to 75%.
