Effects of Sound on Plants

Hey all, I did a bit of asking/looking around about a thread in regards to the effect of sound on plants and it seems like there's nothing out, I could very well be wrong, either way, here's one!

I personally have done a very tiny amount of research so everybody feel free to post links, thoughts, anything constructive. I know TheLittleBoyWhoPointed mentioned he had a bunch of info to share so that should get things started! Thanks for any help! :tunes:​

They did that on an episode of Mythbusters.......i dont remember what kind of plants they were though. From what i remember they had some degree of success with it but who knows, im not a scientist outside of my tent. Might have to fire up netflix and find it

WOW! thats a HUGE topic there...Well,in my humble opinion this could go from something as simple as talking to your plants,to, Saying whats known as the HUM across the globe and vibrations increased or decreased will make the plant(s) do one thing or another.I'd be interested in reading this a lot more if people Do have any theories and/or links too.I think many of us find it a little like therapy to a degree. :thread:

That myth busters was awesome. They screwed up the control grow tent and actually showed the fail on TV. Ironically the plants grown with 24 hours of death metal playing did the best. I think you can search it on Netflix. It was really interesting.

Thanks for the interest The Dude, there is lot's of information out there... http://www.rexresearch.com/agro/1strnhm.htm <-- this one is an easy read,it talks about how each note (in a specific study) was chosen to correspond to an amino acid in a protein with the full tune corresponding to the entire protein, which applies less to music.

I know one mentioned that Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin were detrimental to the plant, they just have a different taste i suppose...

Mythbusters said something about them liking any sound, but rock n roll was the clear favorite:head::head::head:

Don't subject them to boy bands or they'll hermie

Yeah I have heard that Rock tunes were the Best.Its a vibration thing and pulse tone something or another.Ya I find this a very interesting thing since its a true unknown as far as physics and science we can say100% ya, this happens always.A small piece of the unknown sciences. LOL! Hermie!!Mine get my mood music from Zep,to Metal Church.Maybe I should play my drums three hours every other day n see what happens to them.LMAO!!:joint:

If it ultimately comes down to frequencies you'd think "good plant music" would be music that plays with those specific frequencies? also would very chordy and dissonant sounding music with odd time signatures be difficult for a plant to productively receive?that being said there's lot's of progressive house/electro stuff out there which evolves smoothly and typically doesn't have much melodic diversity to it, provided the right frequencies were hit you would think it would be easier music for the plant to receive? just a thought

I remember reading an article about corns a week or two ago and this must be it: http://www.australiangeographic.com.au/journal/plants-can-talk-to-each-other.htm

Oh and about the music. When still living with my parents the flowers in my room thrived the most. So despite what our religion teacher said, black metal does not kill plants
