Duckweed Pilot Looking Great!

May 18, 2013

Test pond fully covered

Am delighted with how my second “seed” batch of duckweed is looking in this test pond. Am monitoring pH, etc… as I move into Phase 2 by beginning an organic nutrient regime. My other pond is now beginning to grow well also. Will start harvesting from this pond next week. 🙂

      Thanks, John. I’m going to need some manpower to help harvest and dry this summer. What say you to interning here in KY for food and a camper to live in (complete with compost toilet?)
