quote pulled from quoted source, qouteception

"Treatment of plants with static magnetic field with or without iron led to decrease of the growth of plants as well as decrease in the activity of phenyle alanine ammonialyase and of phenolic compounds content. In addition in those plants exposed to magnetic field the amount of essential oils, notably of methyl chavicol, was increased. Exposure of plants to the magnetic field decreased the activity of polyphenol oxidase, whereas treatment of plants with iron when exposed to magnetic field increased polyphenol oxidase activity. In this group the content of essential oil was reduced."


DIY Magnet Watering system Advantages

Vegetation period decreases by 15-20 days, therefore the crops ripe 15-20 days earlier than normally.
Crop production increases from 15-20% to 100%, and in some cases, even more.
Plant disease rates drastically decrease.
Taste of agricultural products improves.
Approximately 30% less water is used for irrigation
Therefore 30% less energy is used in water pipes.
Sea water (salty water) can be used for watering (from 6-8 thousand PPM inclusive) and for some cultures, very salty water can be used (from 15 thousand inclusive).
By magnetizing seeds before sowing and by irrigating them with magnetic water, the need for crop material decreases by min. 30%.
Average of 30% decrease in fertilizer consumption.
Active soil desalination takes place, increasing crop production year after year.

sooooooo, the question i have is

How much magnetic charge, what size magnet would work?

I really admire what you've done and keep doing DrFever, not only ambitiously but audaciously have you pursued your experimenting despite some stigma of doubt a few pages back..this brilliant thread is actually what compelled me to register after many months of on and off lurking, I can follow up on it now lol. Really great hypothesis, though while I see some people posting "spam spam spam spam" in reply to your posts, ironically, you can't count your chickens until they've hatched - why flame DrFever? It's an experiment for a reason. Nobody in the history of science has been slapped around for trying or sharing something new...though maybe they should've done that to Harry Harlow lmao

I'm going to join this experiment and share what happens when I'm up, keep doing your shit fever :tiphat:

Guess i should update them 4 plants in flower with magnets tonight lol well get them before lights on
Cheers DOC

ok had time to take a picture you all got to remember these plants are getting side lighting from 1000 watts but still amazing growth well anyways you be the judge
plants are untouched magnets placed on east side of tote and scattered magnets :biggrin:

I love the photos Doc! A suggestion of mine is the next time you take a picture, have all of the buckets next/close to each other, kind of standing back a bit as you do; not trying to sound pushy but it would do wonders showing the progress and squelch nay sayers..mainly excited and want to see them all in one picture, plants and marked buckets in the same shot (0:
I'm very interested too, but PLEASE PLEASE just don't mention Galileo, the inquisition and the US Government! :hotbounce Damn the torpedoes!
I was stoned posting (though I should just say posting because being shanti and lurking/posting ICM go hand-in-hand) and didn't really put that much thought into that tiny attempt of a vague metaphor and didnt trip over the actual thought of it (how said hypothetical example was worded I should say) until you pointed it out; especially all of the advancements kept away and or destroyed by the USgov or sketchy backwater gov's, obscure countries with brilliant minds outside the box that probably made/discovered/came up with something brilliant that was never to be seen/re-replicated again.
All the bad vibes that come from dwelling on thoughts like that are worse than getting a random negrep on that post, shoulda held back an let me explain if something that trivial irked ya that much matey, sall good Stonefree69 (0;'

Has anyone else thought about conducting a similar experiment? If so what would you do differently or your thoughts about it thus far, or what new ideas do you have/would implement. Cheers!

interesting thread.

i've heard of magnets that are used in the washer instead of laundry detergent, because supposedly they lower the water's viscosity, just as the detergents do.

if that is so, i would think that treating your water with magnets before watering would increase its ability to penetrate the soil more evenly.


someone in this thread mentioned putting donut magnets around the stem of the plant. if i can find the ones i've extracted from old microwave ovens, i might give it a try on my next run.

i'm no scientist, but i am convinced that there is MUCH more to water than is generally accepted, ever since i read the amazing insights of viktor schauberger. he was known as 'the water wizard'. i can recommend research on him for anyone who likes thinking outside the box. his mantra was "understand and copy nature".

yea i agree guys i will get better pics of all of them today just kinda tight in room presently but today is clean day as well as feed so i will get better pictures.
As well all of them in one pic later on today , I realize this experiment is way out to lunch
so not controlled many factors these plants are in shaded areas out side my actual canopy but have amazing bud growth,,
and if you stop and think for a moment water temps when feeding effect many factors, O2 availability etc so to think magnets possibly not in soil but magnetically charged water could very well be the answer,
Then you think of ok what about the Zinc and iron that is on the metal end of the molecules this could create a problem again plants use these may be foiler feed Zinc and iron directly onto plants
Anyways my next grow i am and will be adding magnetizd water

Interesting idea .. I'm wondering if you did a double blind to see if one plant does better with or without.. Seeing as though they really still don't understand the energy of a magnet the whole thing should be interesting headband 707:)

Interesting thread, some great information.

Just thought I would mention that without the Earth's electromagnetic field, Humans would be just a puddle of water.....sorry if I was off topic !

Plenty of haters in here, negatively marking all these posts, Cootz? Keep it up, I wish you had some way of quantitatively measuring shit somehow....looking good. I appreciate all the posts about new ways of thinking of Magnetism.

Yo bro I'm sure you have already been told that your initial idea won't work as the nute particles are not the same as medal objects that might stick to a magnet. The idea that might be interesting in your experiment is plants grown under a magnetic field . This might have been done before you could look and see? Seeing as though they still do not understand the magnetic field it should be interesting if nothing else. As far as your plants ability to obtain the nute at different areas in your pot. This is actually not how it works . A plant takes all it's nutes through the roots which inturn bring it to the plant you would not have to hold your nutes in the top or middle of the pot. stay safe headband 707:biggrin:

"magnetizing water" and "magnetized water." This does not mean that the water has acquired a magnetic charge, only that the water has been subjected to a strong magnetic field, which has changed certain properties of that water.
Declustering water (reducing its surface tension) renders the water more “bio-available,” thus improving the transfer of nutrients into cells – and the removal of waste from cells.
North Pole water (water exposed to the north pole of a magnet) has a calming and healing effect and will help to overcome infection since it retards the growth of cells.
South Pole water does the opposite: it's stimulating and encourages the growth of human cells, plant cells, and even pathogenic cells, such as bacteria.
Mixed pole water (both poles) seems to offer the best of both worlds and can be used for general health improvement.
At its simplest level, water is H-O-H, or H2O if you prefer. The more complete truth, however, is that water is never SIMPLY H-O-H. Liquid water can be thought of as a seething mass of molecules in which hydrogen-bonded clusters are continually forming, breaking apart, and re-forming. These electronically effervescent water molecules readily break and make bonds with chemical compounds -- some that are essential for life, and of course, some that are less than healthy.

However, all matter exhibits magnetic properties when placed in an external magnetic field. Even substances like copper and aluminum that are not normally thought of as having magnetic properties are affected by the presence of a magnetic field such as that produced by either pole of a bar magnet.

Ground water contains thousands of particles and microelements whose impurities give rise to the surrounding electron shells: cations (+) and anions (-). "Pure" water is a polar liquid, i.e. one part of the water molecule has a positive electrical charge and the other part has a negative charge; but overall, the net electrical charge is negative. Thus, the water molecule is a small magnet (dipole), whose magnetic (or electric) field can be affected by causing the molecule to turn or rotate in one direction or the other, taking on a positive or negative higher potential – depending on whether a South (positive) or North (negative) outside magnetic field has been applied.

After some reading on the net i am a firm believer that by adding magnetized water to your nutrients which we all must come to grip these nutrients when broken down are different types of molecules.
Water is a MOLECULE and from most of my readings they all carry some sort of magnetic charge the reason for placing magnets was to actually have these molecules suspended rather then just leaching to bottom of pot .
Allowing plant to actually pic an choose what nutrient molecule it wants anyways tonight is chop night will post some pics of wet weight thanks all for showing some interest

LOL I can't say I know a lot about magnetized water? or even the field itself just a laymens understanding of the whole thing but this should be interesting if nothing else. You seem to have a good understanding of the whole thing so I would have to assume that this experiment has been tried in other plants . I will definately watch your show bra stay safe headband 707:biggrin:

Hey all well little update on them plants decided to shut them down as i am getting ready to trim my 12 plant scrog.
So these girls surprised me and i feel they did rather well considering they really were getting indirect light, as i had them around my scrog table so most of the weight came from obviously top bud sites, as lower bud sites were there but not getting much light. So 4 plants wet weight i got 290 grams so averaging 72 .5 wet grams
per plant so more or less should give me 24 grams dry per plant 3.5 oz

Thanks to all that showed a interest :biggrin: i think i will implement magnetized water for my next grow show with more dialed set ups
