Anyone for an Experimental Grow Off?

The mods and Olaf are coming up with some “Grow Off” ideas for some contests we’re looking to kick off very soon.

If you follow my grows, you know I like to experiment with stuff. That being said, I want to run an experimental grow off using SOUND

If you don’t know, I’ve been experimenting with sound waves in the grow space via tuning forks and I’m seeing crazy results! I also spoke with a farmer, at a homesteading event, who is getting similar results from playing music to his garden.

So I was thinking, a small speaker set up in your grow space. Pump some tunes to your plants 24/7?

Anyone interested in playing around with something like this?

So, let me know if you’re interested in setting a new bar for the grow world! Chime in!

I might just jump on this in the next grow… I’m not making any promises, but I’d like to try this too… :thinking:

Very cool idea @AfgVet Are you just thinking of playing music during a grow or trying to compare grows one without music the other with?

If you put on some Syd Barrett, it’d have to be LSD Autoflower.

I just started using the earth battery method. First Day..Anyone else attempted? Hypothesis: make a magnetic field, free of pesticides, fertilizers, and gives off a < 1 volt charge alone per pot, while super charging plant growth.

We’re just going to roll with introducing sound. Running a comparison would require two different grow spaces, something everyone may not have.

Nice! Curious to see if the plants have a preference to different music
