"When you get behind,
it's hard to catch up"
unless you irrigate with D.I.R.T.
D.I.R.T.
Dynamic Irrigation
Recommendation Technologies
With reduced surface tension, water fills smaller pores in the soil - D.I.R.T. strategies rely on Flow-Tech Grow's signature RF signal that measurably reduces the water's surface tension to:
-
Absorb Quicker in tight soils
-
Hold Higher in sandy soils
-
Rapidly Recharge Field Capacities
-
thru periods of high crop demand
-
scorching heat events
-
and hot dry winds
-
-
or following planned deficit irrigation

2020 - Runoff with Non-treated water - thru Drip Tape
By late June of 2020, having irrigated with non-treated water for the previous 4 weeks, and experiencing the usual flooding, the Grower decided to treat the entire field to increase Absorption.

Just yards away in Zones Treated with Flow-Tech Grow
Treated water absorbs quickly. To study just how quickly, soil moisture probes were placed laterally, 6 1/2" below the bed in both Zones to measure the width of wetting patterns. Open the PDF for a deeper dive into Water-Point's development of its DIRT strategies, since 2017.

Runoff after 12 Hour irrigation - thru Drip Tape
Non-Treated water (must) be Dammed
2021 Echo, OR - Field 55
12 hour set with Treated Water is more easily absorbed
"Chemical-Free" water shows Limited Runoff
Drip-irrigated NON Treated Water
Oregon State University, Soil and Crop Sciences
Winchester Sand soil was collected from the Waste Water percolation field study site in Boardman, OR. that showed increased leaching in the Non-Treated field.
Simultaneously Dripped with Treated Water
December 11, 2017 - Observation Tanks
The wetting pattern above represents the soil moisture data collected during the Wastewater study showing treated water holding higher in the soil profile and less water traveling as deep as Non-treated water.
We had lots of questions about Flow-Tech Grow water-treatment, in the beginning. 8-seasons later, got lots of answers...
... so, ask away!
