Anyone used the BioWave ?

I hate to dredge up an old thread but. I came across this article "Vibrations Enhance Efficiency of Photosynthesis in Plant Leaves" http://www.scienceworldreport.com/a...ce-efficiency-photosynthesis-plant-leaves.htm citing a new study that was published recently called "Vibronic coherence in oxygenic photosynthesis" http://www.nature.com/nchem/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/nchem.2005.html . Anyways, I thought this might be decent info to post here.

"What we've found is that when the gaps in energy level are close to vibrational frequencies, you can have enhanced charge separation," said Ogilvie. "It's a bit like a bucket-bridgade: how much water you transport down the line of people depends on each person getting the right timing and the right motion to maximize the thoroughput. Our experiments have told us about the important timing and motions that are used to separate the charge in the photosystem II reaction center."

Perhaps there is something to the "Biowave" http://www.biowaveindustries.com/mini.htm . I honestly have no idea but. Hell, I will be happy if the "Biowave" can just keep the insects away from my plants.

Its been marketed almost exclusively to weed growers for at least six years now , still no credible test results just a lot of anecdotal bull.

If it worked there would be competitors in a huge market by now , there are none.

Just enough science there to lead you to believe and want there to be something in it , a good scam product to market at a high profit per unit to the naïve with money to burn.

Remember the ultrasonic devices once marketed to scare off insects , mice and moles , that proved to be completely useless when tested properly.

Exactly. If it did what it claims, or did anything close to what it claims, it would be in every commercial greenhouse in Europe by now.

Like I said, I don't know much about this stuff but. When I saw that article I immediately thought of the Biowave and just thought I would post the info for the study since it seemed to be on the same subject.
