Your Garden’s Song
Plants respond to music, growing better while listening to classical music and nature sounds, but how does sound change the physicality of the plant?
In the book The Secret Life of Plants, researchers hooked plants to machines resembling lie detectors, which revealed their response to threatening behavior. Wow! Plants possess an awareness of their wellbeing and surroundings.
Even more startling, the plants showed a reaction to their owner’s well-being, even if the owners were across the country. This seems like quantum entanglement (when two energies link on the quantum level and effect another, even at long distances). Maybe the plants’ have emotions and care about their owners?
If this idea is not delightful enough, researchers filmed plants “singing.” They increased the vibrations of tiny frequencies emitted from the plant. The plant’s small vibrations are too soft for us to hear but may account for why we feel uplifted in a botanical garden or calm down in nature. Unconsciously these “plant songs” lull us into harmony and a sense of wellbeing.
People have hooked electrodes to plants’ leaves and roots and then connected them to musical instruments, producing fairy-like music: a new genre?
A Mexican named Aerial Guzik, hooked cacti to lutes and used their tiny these energetic impulses to create strangely beautiful music. Another experiment at Dananhur in Italy showed plants connected to electronic instruments, producing exquisite music.

The Kairos Institute of Sound Healing in New Mexico tested if sound vibrations enhanced crop growth. They played tuning forks and hand chimes over seedlings. The forks were tuned to the frequency made by Mars and Venus moving in their orbits and other frequencies found in space (raised octaves into hearing range).
