playing MOZART to improve your crop

[Cannaburg]

So I have read that plants respond really well to Mozart being played... something to do with the time signatures and plants responding to it! Has anyone heard of this before and would you consider playing Mozart to your crops'?

Death Metal only for my plants

It's pretty crazy with the science that went behind this article I read years ago....

I prefer death metal to Mozart any day but.... what if it's like the difference if adding co2 to your crop?

I was joking. If I’m not mistaken it’s the Hz that are important. I think jazz is also a good choice. I’ve not tried any controls to tell a difference. Can’t hurt as long as it’s not country.

Brahms or Chopin. Not some hack like Mozart. Plants are super sophisticated. Snooty even.

Mine like Green Day

My plants are headbangers, every last one of them. They wanted to be dancing girls but I wouldn’t let them. Now they like Black Sabbath even more than I do! I told them if they were good I would get them a job being a groupie for Willie Nelson.

Plants can perceive light, scent, touch, wind, even gravity, and are able to respond to sounds, too. No, music will not help plants grow—even classical—but other audio cues can help plants survive and thrive in their habitats.Jul 8, 2014

Oh man.... these guys bummed me out.

Do Plants Hear?

How do plants sense the environment that surrounds them?

I played mozart and my plants started leaving!

sorry!

My opinion is this is Broscience. It's like when they said that talking to your plants improved yields only to find out it was the CO2 you were emitting that was helping them not the conversation at hand!

What kind of experiment and statistical analysis was described in the article? How did it improve yield? Did it improve potency?

My plants prefere Neil Young.

Not even reggae?

The music studies initially were in conjunction with gibberellins

I am going off memory here... I remember it just created an overall better environment... they noticed that even the plants cells were stronger.... as for yield and taste it made the taste better and it was = to using co2 to bump up yield numbers.... again I read this article 10-15 years ago and never have seen any other studies like it since

Jim Belushi thinks it’s very important. His worker lady got in trouble for playing funk in the morning when he insisted that funk only be played in the evening. He has a reality show about his weed business. It’s pretty funny.

I'm all in favor of an easy way to increase yields and/or potency. But this is something easy to test.

A quick look at google scholar indicates that there could be great benefits, but I didn't see anything about cannabis.

Myth Busters did an episode on it and if my memory is right they did get a difference in growth with different sounds. Can't remember what they liked. I do remember 1 group of plants got yelled at everyday and they didn't like that.

I kinda remember that!

I personally play Yo-yo Ma to my plants when I am working in there. It's for me, just trying to chill and take my time with them. The whole "best fertilizer is the footsteps of the farmer thing." But then they get Rush when we are done messing in the tent.

Sativas like Metal. Indicas like top 40. Hybrids like classical.


I am full of shit.
