Low Yield Well - What to do?

So we recently had a new well drilled on the homestead we are building from scratch and despite going down 680', we are only yielding about 1/2 gallon per minute. Ideally a well should get 5 gallons per minute or more so we are not anywhere close to what we really want, or need for that matter.  So now what?

This leaves us with a couple of options.

1. Over the course of the weekend the water in the well filled up to 15' below the surface. At a depth of 680', thats about 900 or so gallons of water (1.5 gallons per foot  in a 6" diameter hole).  That is a lot of water! We could just leave it as is and use what is there. This would require buying a very large expensive pump because it would have to go so far down and it would also need a larger, more expensive wire. But it would be doable. However, with a lot of animals and a small homestead farm we would run the risk of running the well temporarily dry, especially if there were to be a leak anywhere causing the water to run.  
2. We could have the well hydro-fracked (also called hydro-fracturing). This sounds ominous...after all we all know how bad fracking for oil and gas is! However it is not the same and this difference is very important to understand (I will explain the difference later). Basically a 'bladder' is placed in the well 50' below the well head. This seals the well up. Ours would go 70' down. Then water is pumped into the well to build up pressure until the existing cracks enlarge or, basically fracture, allowing more water to flow. The pressure can go as high as 3,500 psi (pounds per square inch), however on average it only reaches about 1,000 psi. This method works 98% of the time.

We have a difficult decision to make here because drilling the well was a very expensive endeavor and whether we choose to hydro-frack or work with what we have we are looking at several thousand dollars more.  

Here is a video we made about the process so far:

We will update you as soon as we do some more research and decide  what to do!
