Music / Sound to stimulate plant growth?

Dentists used to have technology whereby their patients would be anesthesized using VL frequencies. It went away with the invention of the hypodermic needle and big pharmas anesthetic drugs.

This same tech can be used to sterilize weed seeds, according to research done by Phillip S. Callahan & a farmer, John McCabe, from OZ. Anesthetic frequency range runs from about 600 cps (Hz) to about 4000 cps (Hz).

The round towers in Ireland & trees amplify resonance at frequencies between 1-20 cps (Hz) & 400-10,000 cps(Hz). As tested by P. Callahan.

This dude did some very interesting research but it's more or less going the same direction as Nicola Teslas knowledge. It's being obscured by those that cannot profit from the tech. I encourage anybody thats interested in subtle energies to check out this guys work.

This wonderful lady has used music and frequency and had amazing, scientific results. MY RESULTS differ just a bit... My dad always played music during his seedling stage and he became confident that the seedlings always did better when he left the radio play in the background. Life goes on.. Now i garden and do my medicine also.. I am ADDICTED to music. I followed the dead for years and now that i am disabled i use it to help control pain. It is the vibration, the frequency, the LIFE of the music.
So I figured my plants would LOVE full grateful dead shows playing 18 hrs a day. THEY DO NOT. In some tests they even died. I used the link I sent you for my own studies. My plants like quiet morning music. Nice light classical tunes. as the day progresses they need breaks of an hour or 2. Remember, plants have great EARS, especially corn. HA! That was a joke... You know how sensitive plants are so play that funky music on low. Switching it up is a must. I use drumming alone, classical, jazz, Jam band, neil young, van morrison, tom petty, Brahm's lullaby every night and lots and lots of classical... Harps, strings, etc... i don't know much but i know it works. Want instant proof? Take 1 well established seedling and play any death metal on medium volume for 24hrs. It WILL kill your plant. For a more serious test, Take 4 established seedlings. Play nice, low volume music for 1, play NOTHING for another, Play the worst GWAR, Rob Zombie, Death metal on medium non-stop for 24 hrs for yet another and the last one play just music, no singing and again, the slow and low nice peace and love kind with NO LYRICS. Good luck

This may get you started but do not over complicate. I play classical at morning and night but never more than 2-3 hours at a clip. I throw in some light Jam band music in the afternoon. Van Morrison maybe, Th e Dead, The Allmans, etc, but very low volume. I have killed plants using death metal. you can do this in as little as 24 hrs if you want to prove a point that DEATH METAL SUCKS, lol.... YES Virginia, Music is a Santa Claus.

Cannot believe nobody knows this.

It's a fact that birds singing open stomata. This is where gas exchange takes place. If you run CO2 and play bird songs, the plants will breathe very happily.

It's a fairly precise level of sound. There is also a very costly gizmo that supposed to do the same thing.

It's called your stereo...
They make cheap ones too.
 
Have studied micro-tonal music long before weed and feel this subject is often overlooked but very crucial for indoor growing. Have experimented with bird noise which is all high frequency and even oscillations of mid frequency to simulate the sound of bee's. When you play sounds that replicate a rain storm the plants go into a defense mode triggered by low frequency etc. I used a set of krk v4 studio monitors and a 10 inch subwoofer for this run and honestly noticed a huge difference in my plants health.
 
Would also play them Bhangra music which is a folk music from the Punjab which I felt covered the best natural spectrum because of the flute to simulate the bird noise the vocal singing to simulate the mid range (bee's) and the dhol drum to simulate the low frequency for the root growth and Bhangra is loosely translated to "cannabis music" believe but could be wrong on that
