Has anyone on here read much on or even tried a DIY electro culture set up? Something that I stumbled on about a week ago and I’ve been reading up a little on it but can’t find much on how to actually design and implement a system like that.

Possibly something like this. I’ve always wondered about if this works or not I don’t grow outdoors and my wife would kill me if I connected to the house electrical ground. Lol. She is a paranoid freak about anything fire related or electrical. Lol.
Never heard of electro culture, futuristic stuff.

Super interesting stuff. I remember my EE professor having a project in the summer semester’s traveling to Africa and using electricity to help boost farming yields there. For some reason it randomly popped into n my head like a week or so ago and I’ve been trying to find as much as I can about it ever since. Basically, the idea is to mimic the environment right before, during, and right after a thunderstorm. Apparently, plants experience a boost in metabolism during this time period due to the charged ions in the air and even soil from lighting strikes. Not only can it increase growth rates but has also shown to be incredibly effective as pest and disease prevention.

My plants always have tunes. What they are depends on my mood at the time. I listen to a wide variety of shit from rap to country, classic rock to new. I remember when I was younger hearing/reading about music and fishing. Always had better luck fishing when I had tunes a cranking

Something to do with the sound vibrations… Words won’t matter to the plants 
… But I think faster has been better… I listen to every genre even have a relaxation radio station on my Pandora lol

I have heard of something like it this little guy right here.
This device vibrates at a certain frequency and makes the plants stomas/pores under the leaves have a reaction and dilate thereby increasing water transference/transpiration rate which overall improves the plant physicality and gives a bigger yield. Ive been wanting one for a year now.

I’m trying it with my plants. Used it on a half dead tomato plant and it’s so green and thriving now… interesting stuff for sure.
