I hope this will work out, if not, whatever!

Utilizing Electro-culture to replace light and provide the plants with necessary needs.

Currently utilizing 2 methods.

1. Charging soil with negative charge and charging the upper part with positive charge. This will not necessarily make the plants grow taller since the positive charge is not higher than the plant itself, but that's okay since they've grown enough.

2. Very new to me but interesting to try, placed two copper sheets on two seperate wood pallets of which the one pallet is outdoors in the sun and the other pallet is inside pointing towards the plants, both copper sheet covered pallets are connected by copper wire (touching both copper sheets from outdoors and indoors.

You can see the images I uploaded for method clarification.

Farmers use this practice on a pretty wide scale, I thought it seemed nuts too, but it works with some crops……why not try it?
I love crazy stuff like this.

No, he grew those with the light. Going to try and keep them going without light. My opinion is, I don’t think so! But good luck! Copper must be pretty cheap over there! Or, I would’ve spent it on a light.

Yeah I have my doubts it will work. But love the idea of him trying. Can't wait to see how it goes.

He went from scrounging for seeds to this, so I wouldn’t count him out! I think he’s over around Greece, or in that neck of the woods.

I tell you what, though, I’ve always thought about running a low voltage current through a plant to see if it would get rid of spider, mites, or aphids or other pests. Make it a little inhospitable for them without dowsing your plant.

Crazier things have been done to cannabis, there’s got to be something to that as a good deterrent…….

Maybe, I hope they continue to grow.

For the burning down my house part, I hope not! Seems safe enough to me.

Day 2 (Update: Added one more plant which I still had outside, moved the pallet with the copper sheet (method 2) on top of the cage which surrounds the big plant with the hope that the plants will be attracted to it and grow taller).

Pulling oldest plant and making oil. Biggest plant looks weak.

Yeah, it sounded like a pipe dream. Why did you have to move them inside? Is it illegal over there?

With a lack of a wet dry cycle being nominal, it seems that’s a pretty big hitch in the giddy up.

If you could grow plants in the dark, big AG would be all over it!

Still wild in theory, I’m sure maybe there are more hearty plants that can pull it off, but the way cannabis has been bred over the years, it just seems insurmountable to grow without a light cycle.

The plants will have to go anyway duo to some legal reasons, regardless them being indoors.

Thanks for following along.
