I'm not an expert on this, but I think CuS04
might be pretty toxic. I don't know what your
water supply is, but I don't think you'd wouldn't
want the chemical leaching into a well. Just a thought. Dennis Hopkinton MA

For a high power coil, I'd use four to six 10 ft
copper plated steel ground rods pounded at about
a 45º angle with all their tops being at a
center point. Even in a very cold area, like here
in Colorado in the winter, that should be below
the frost line sufficiently as the ends would
still be 7ft down at that angle. I read where one
guy liked to pound the rod about halfway into the
ground and the 'wallow out' the hole a little and
remove the rod and fill the hole with a good
electrolyte solution(copper sulfate eg) then
after that soaks in...maybe even repeat the
filling a few times, then pound the rod all the
way down. I have a disadvantage where I live...in
the mountains.....there a great reason they are
called the ROCKY mountains haha. It's hard to
pound ten ft rods through the rocks. I do have
one decent possibility for a good ground
though....the leach field for the septic tank. It
has a lil problem and one small area stays
wet...even though it gets fairly cold here. I
might have to buy a few 50lb bags of copper,
potassium or magnesium sulfate and pour them onto
that wet spot and let it diffuse through the
whole field. I imagine that could make for a
sufficiently conductive ground. The copper
sulfate might have to be flushed down the sink or
toilet though....it could kill the roots of the
plants nearby if I just poured the crystals onto
the ground.....that would not be the case with
potassium or magnesium sulfate though.

Physics:
Once the water is no longer liquid, the ions that
allow current flow are trapped, more or less immobile.
If natural warming, or warming from current from coil
melts water around 'ground electrode', thing simprove.
