Do you play music for your plants - Women's Forum - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

How many of you play music for your plants.

I play the local classical PBS channel

I have found they grow better when they have something other than machines to listen to.

Classical seems to have a calming influence. It does seem to work though. not bad for me either

If you do play music for them what do you play and why.

Do you play what you like or what is best for them?

Yes i think classical is best for them

This is my opinion Please don't think i am trying to present fact

Thank you

I love sharing ambient music with my garden. It's mostly Harold Budd these days but will occasionally feed them a bit of Aphex Twin.

Why not... If it's soothing to me I figure it's doing something positive regardless of how the garden is affected

The Secret Life of Plants by Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird has some info on this... records of experiments with plant's awareness including their perception of music. highly recommended.

If you sing to your plants, the CO2 you're exhaling will be beneficial, but otherwise music does absolutely nothing for plants.

In my house most of the time I have music like this playing:

This is a great idea... I bet live string music is even more effective because of the actual vibrations resonating from whatever instrument. Not only is it positive intention and lovin' care, but actual vibrational stimulus! We'll give it a try~

Myth Busters did this in an episode and death metal seemed to give the best growth.

Talking helps plants grow.

plausible

Seven small greenhouses were set up on the M5 Industries roof. Four were set up with stereos playing endlessly looping recordings (as having the Mythbusters actually talk to the plants could contaminate the samples with their expelled carbon dioxide): Two of negative speech, two of positive speech (Kari and Scottie each made one positive and one negative soundtrack), a fifth with classical music and a sixth with intense death metal music. A seventh greenhouse, used as a control sample, had no stereo. The greenhouses with the recordings of speech grew better than the control, regardless of whether such talk was kind or angry. The plants in the greenhouse with the recording of classical music grew better, while the plants in the greenhouse with the recording of intense death metal grew best of all.

I play the local commercial-free jazz station for my girls
