This may seem both insignificant and pointless, yet of everything I have experienced with my device I believe it holds the most promise
And it was a complete accident

This was taken seconds after the photo to the left from the reverse angle. It is simply a patch of growing grass, nothing exceptional about that
Except this patch of grass I had dumped out the remainder of what I considered a failed test. 5 days later the grass started growing what I calculated at 300% faster than the proximal grass
And continued to do so for 7 weeks, until it consumed all available resources and ended up a brown patch

After running seeds through my device I started to believe that the effect may attach to inorganic molecules which I could then feed to plants
My first thought was salt, as it is cheap, available, and I had it in the house
Mixed up a gallon of dilute saline solution with salt I ran through my device. Watered a test run of marigolds with this, thinking hey, they are going to grow buck wild. Yep, killed all of them. Really not an agronomist
Had a quart left and tossed it out onto my yard thinking I probably don't want to kill more plants with it
A week later I noticed the patch where I had dumped the remaining solution wanted to race the other grass towards the sun, and was winning really easily

Again, I get these photos aren't inspiring, but I am relaying a very odd event with what I have available
I mowed weekly through this period, this patch bounced back faster every time

The End of the crazy growth, which resulted in a brown patch, yet the previously greenest, thickest grass is now incapable of even being green. My theory is that all available food was consumed so fast it ate itself to death. Very, very fast
This entire event lasted from June 23 to August 8, 2020
