ORMUS Oranges
The two oranges on the right were watered with ORMUS precitate from the Great Salt Lake.

The orange on the far right came from a tree which was watered with ORMUS precipitate for four years and
the smaller orange just to the left of it came from a tree that was only watered with ORMUS precipitate for
two years.
To give you an idea of the relative sizes of these oranges I took a picture of a slightly larger
supermarket orange next to a cantaloupe melon. The cantaloupe is the same size as the largest orange as you
can see by comparing it to the picture directly below it.
Following is a chart which compares the sizes of the various fruits in order of their size. The
circumferences were measured but most of the weights were estimated based on a ratio of the
measured weight of the large supermarket orange.

Below is another size comparison between the two year ORMUS orange, the four year ORMUS orange and the small
supermarket orange. In this combined picture each of the oranges is in a standard Pyrex™ one quart measuring
cup.

The picture below shows Dana holding these same three oranges after they have been sliced in half. The
supermarket orange is on the left, the four year ORMUS orange is in the center and the two year ORMUS
orange is on the right. The two year ORMUS orange looks larger by comparison because it is closer to the
camera.

Both of the large oranges were grown in Brazil on Great Salt Lake (GSL) precipitate. The
small orange was purchased from a supermarket in North Carolina.
There are early indications that the plants grown with GSL precipitate are more resistant to
insects and disease and have a longer growing season due to frost and drought resistance. All of
these results are very preliminary and need more study before definitive statements on this can be
made.
Dana has been recruiting farmers and gardeners for more experimentation with the GSL precipitate
since 2004. You can find more images of these oranges on Dana's web site at::
