Dear List Serve,
Because it is Sunday I will address a recent listing. In an email addressed
to this group January 26th titled Fwd: WATER REPORT, Dr. Ingham stated the

Sodium and salt levels are high. Where's the salt coming from? You need
to think through where the high salt, EC could be entering the water.
Ideas?
You could do reverse osmosis on this water to get rid of the salts.
You could run the water through a filter to pull the salts out.
You could add humic acids, with a good set of bacteria and fungi, to complex
the salts.
But no matter what, you have to exit the high salts.

If a client has these sodium and salt high level problems, the Wormgold
Extractor has offered a reverse osmosis unit as an alternative for
overcoming these conditions. If a client does not have these conditions or
has another way of dealing with these conditions, then the RO unit does not
need to be purchased.
The RO units with the Wormgold Extractors have a 1:2 ratio of - one gallon
of water produced for the solution and 2 gallons of waste water. The
clients have been very inventive at utilizing this waster water for wetting
down their dirt roadways or paths.
The 100 gallon Wormgold Extractor can be decanted and cleaned within 45-50
minutes. The end users consulted while the extractor was being developed
told us that time and labor were important factors, so the slick smooth
surfaces with removable parts were incorporated into the design, so the
machines could be easily cleaned after each use.
The Wormgold website has partially been put up on the internet this week for
more information on the Wormgold Extractors at www.wormgold.com. A seminar
at Cline Cellars in Sonoma County is also being held on Friday February 14th
where Paul Wagner from the SFI Lab in NY and Bob Cannard of Cannard Farms
will be the featured speakers. The Wormgold Extractors will be demonstrated
also. Please email us directly or call if you are interested in attending.
