Preliminary Test Results
For Liquid Gold and Silica Rich
Results from the Application of Liquid Gold & Silica Rich
In preface, I am not a professional gardner, nor is this a true scientific study. Similar to what any homeowner might do, I have merely taken what was existing in my yard and applied Liquid Gold Plant & Soil Tonic, and in some cases, Silica Rich Pyrophyllite Clay and self-grown worm castings to the plants and soil. I wanted to see what these products by themselves would do to improve on my slow growing, newly landscaped yard. The soil quality is generally very poor, being mostly a hardpan cleche. The yard had been mostly bare dirt for the last ten years due to the declining health of the previous owner. The altitude is about 2500 feet in a high desert environment, situated slightly up the side of a mountian. Nights get cooler here than at lower elevations and therefore plant growth is generally slower than at lower elevations. It is cold, wet and windy during the Winter with several inches of snow a few times each year, often just as Spring approaches. So the growing season is generally shorter than normal.
More results from the Application of Liquid Gold Only
This is a lemon tree that was grown from seed during 2006 and kept indoors during the winter. Mid winter Jan '07, the soil was amended with Liquid Gold and watered in. 2 tablespoons per gallon of water was the dilution rate. While it was snowing outside in Ashland, OR, and within 4 weeks after being amended, the lemon tree grew 8 inches with the large, dark green foliage as the new growth. Because the potting soil was of poor nutritional quality, come spring the older, smaller leaf growth had began to yellow, although the leaves did not fall off at any point. The smaller yellowing leaves did not appear to be affected by the addition of Liquid Gold (other than surving the winter). Only new growth seems to be visably improved - and what an improvement it is - with leaves 2-3 times the normal size and more lush, healthy and vibrant!
The soil alone (no aerial spray) was amended with Liquid Gold about 4 times throughout the Winter of 2006-7 before these pictures were taken in Mar '07. Characteristically, only new growth seems to be affected by Liquid Gold. The indication is that the DNA of the plant's new growth has been improved.
Japanese Spurge Fed Liquid Gold & Silica Rich:
The two plants on the right were given one application of Silica Rich and regular applications of Liquid Gold (about every 2-3 weeks). The control plant on the left was watered the same as the others but without additives. All plants came from the same nursery.
Australian Flax Fed Liquid Gold & Silica Rich:
Taken Nov 22, 2007, late Fall after Oregon's first freeze. The two plants on the right were given one application of Silica Rich and regular applications of Liquid Gold (about every 3-6 weeks). The control plant on the left was watered the same as the others but without additives. All plants came from the same nursery. The experiment demonstrates the ability of Silica Rich and Liquid Gold to improve plant health, color, strength of the foliage, survivability in harsh conditions, and increase the growing season.
Results from the Application of Liquid Gold, Silica Rich and Worm Castings Together
Amended with Liquid Gold, Silica Rich and worm castings on one side of the arbor but not the other. Can you guess which side?
The foliage below is characterisitc of the side ammended with Liquid Gold, Silica Rich and worm castings. Leaves are larger, healthier, and more bug resistant.
The foliage below is characterisic of the side not amended.
The soil on both sides of the arbor was mostly hardpan clay, being formerly part of the walking area of mostly bare dirt and rock. Both sides were automatically watered everyday. Liquid Gold, Silica Rich and worm castings were added to the side of the arbor adjacent the bricks, converting the soil into a biologically active nutrient delivery system for the plant. The majority of this growth has taken place in the last 6 months, even though the arbor and plants were installed about 12 months ago.
Contrast Two Zones in the Same Groundcover Below:
All of the plants were grown in the same flower bed side by side. Half the bed was amended with Liquid Gold Plant and Soil Tonic. (Silica Rich Pyrophyllite Clay was not used in this experiment). The other half of the bed was not treated with any fertilizer or other soil amendment. The soil was imported from a commercial soil and gravel provider, with about 2-3 inches being placed over a hard cleche bed. Soil quality was very poor. Plants are automatically watered everyday. They are in part sun beneath a plum tree. Plants were purchased from a local nursery and transplanted in the Spring of 2006. Pictures were taken in August 2007.
This is a cross shot of the two beds showing, by plant growth alone, where one test bed stops and the other starts.
On the right side of the picture where no amendments were added, much of the groundcover that was planted did not survive. The plants that did survive are not as full and robust as the plants in the upper left of the picture that were amended with Liquid Gold. This experiment demonstrates the power of Liquid Gold to increase survivability under poor growing conditions and gradually build soil biology and nutrient content in support of more robust plant development.
AMENDED
Here are some of the plants that were amended with Liquid Gold Plant & Soil Tonic.
NOT AMENDED
Not amended with any fertilizer or soil enhancer (yet only inches away from the other zone pictured above). What is also missing here are several of the species that were planted but did not survive the poor soil and harsh winter conditions. I am shooting closer to get a clearer picture of what did survive.
The pictures above contrast the groundcover growth that developed mostly in the last 4 months. Due to poor soil quality very little growth took place in either zone during the first year, even with the side amended with Liquid Gold. Liquid Gold was applied every 3-9 weeks over the first year, then every 1-3 weeks over the last 6 months. Over time, due to the influence of Liquid Gold, the soil's biology and mineral content developed and the plants on the left side began to spread out. I can only imagine what the differences might have been had the plants been raised in good quality organic soil. (Silica Rich was not used in this experiment and neither were worm castings or any other fertilizer).
Liquid Gold Plant & Soil Tonic contains an extract of the agricultural quality Black Clay and Silica Rich along with other mineral nutrients. (The current version of Liquid Gold now also includes extracts of Leonardite.)
The above examples bring up some important questions worthy of thorough scientific investigation (stay tuned). Is it possible that the DNA and subsequent genes are being improved upon by the nutrients in the Liquid Gold and Silica Rich causing this exceptional growth? If they are able to do this for a plant, could this explain the remarkable benefits that humans are deriving from the use of the Black Manna and the Sacred Clay?
