Electroculture Gardening

[Nick]

Since spring is here let’s kick it off with our gardens. I am curious about what everybody is coming up with for the new season.
I’ll start with 2 pictures of our garden. Last weekend we did the final preparations for this season and we already planted some things. Let’s hope this year the absurd amount of rain will stay away and we can finally see the full impact of all the electro culture implemented in the garden.

I’m curious if you’ve used this in the past and what your results were. I started electroculture a few years ago in my home and community garden and observed some differences in growth in the area most near electroculture. I do believe it may have assisted with some bugs. I’m wishing I had more pictures to share but need to go look back through some photos. Early in the growing season the grain plots we planted grew two or more times faster in the area right near the rods I made.

I did an electroculture control experiment in 2023, which I documented in GoogleDocs.. It’s available for anyone to take a look at, by just clicking a link.. I posted it in a discussion thread here, which I think I called “My own Electroculture control experiment — 2023”, or something like that.. I took hundreds and hundreds of photos throughout the grow season, but had to delete all of them from my hard drive.. (Eh, I’m not very techy, and didn’t at the time understand SD cards to expand computer memory.. but that’s worked out now).. But, the most important and best photos are in the documentation, so they’re there to see.. Really interesting results too.. Was just thinking over the past couple months how I want to do another, and better, and next-level control experiment.. I’m holding off until I’m out of this apartment and have an open garden in the ground.. 🐞

I used it the previous year but the results in general were bad because the weather we had was horrible. In April, it rained twice as much as normal; in May, it rained three times as much. So everything drowned. And what didn’t drown was eaten by the snails that came with the wet weather. The seeds I used were also of very poor quality. So too many negative factors.

What did do very well last year were the 2 fruit trees I planted. 1 apple tree that was 120cm when I planted it. The company said that after 3 years it will reach its maximum height which can be upto 3 meters. But the tree already reached 3 meters after 10 months. The other tree is a 1 year young fig tree that managed to give a few ripe figs. Normally it’s after 2 or 3 years.

This year I am not growing from seeds but we buy the small plants and just plant those. So far the weather has been good, I hope it stays this way. And the raised bed has been there for 1,5 years now so I assume that has settled and is living. So I am positive about this season.

No controls. The whole garden is perma culture and electro culture. I’ve seen enough people show the difference between with and without.

Excellent, Nick.. Good to see this, and glad your gardens are back in swing.. I especially like the paramagnetic towers you use.. (as I remember from before, you cast/pour your own cones from a cement and basalt mixture).. Looking forward to see some progress reports.. I’m personally not doing any focused electroculture this year, as I’m still working with a container garden on a balcony — at this point it’s a massive plant nursery of young plants I grew from cuttings (or grew from seeds) from last year.. as such, not much focus other than reusing wire antennas from my 2023 control experiment.. I just stick them in the dirt.. Remind me again of the really tall antenna you got there in the back corner of the large raised bed.. What’s at the top?

On top of the pole is this thing I bought from Yannick. Its small and light so the pole can support it. Only a bird tried to sit on mine so the spiral is now horizontal 😅 You can also easily make your own if you are a bit handy. I made several myself.

When working with pots on a balcony you can do the magnets and pyramids like this.
