Does Electroculture Really Work? My 120-Day Experiment (Photos)

My 120-day outcomes with electroculture as a simple technique to encourage backyard vegetation to develop quicker and extra robustly.

Electroculture is buzzing within the gardening group as a simple strategy to encourage the expansion of vegetation at a extra brisk and strong tempo.

Under is a brief video from Electroculture.life that summarizes the way it’s performed and why to do it.

Supposedly, the copper wire harnesses the free electrons within the air to nourish and fertilize the soil, which sparks fast and strong plant progress.

Vegetation nourished by electroculture are supposedly extra immune to pests. Some declare that you just don’t even have to fertilize the vegetation in any respect …. the free electrons nourish the soil for you.

My Outcomes with Electroculture

For the reason that soil the place I reside in Florida is kind of sandy and low in vitamins, I assumed my backyard and yard can be an ideal candidate for electroculture.

Roughly 120 days in the past, I procured copper wire and wrapped a number of sticks to check out the method for myself.

That is the model of copper wire I bought.

Sadly, the outcomes have been lower than spectacular. In two of the three instances, I positioned the copper-wrapped stick “antennas” on the south aspect of the plant to maximise the results of the earth’s magnetic subject.

Sadly, in all three of my makes an attempt, the non-electroculture plant really grew higher than the vegetation with an electroculture antenna close by 🙁

Be aware that we’ve had loads of thunderstorms in our space to permit the rods to “harvest” the electrical energy within the air.

Our property additionally has zero EMFs as measured with my EMF reader. Thus, interfering EMFs was not the issue both.

Under are the images of my outcomes.

Ardour Fruit Vine Seedlings

The primary image under exhibits the distinction within the progress of ardour fruit seedlings with and with out electroculture.

As you’ll be able to see, the seedling with an antenna is rising considerably slower than the one with out the assistance of a copper wire antenna.

Each had been planted and sprouted on the similar time. The copper-wrapped antenna was positioned when the seedlings had been roughly the identical measurement.

Potted Panorama Vegetation

My second instance is of two bougainvillea panorama vegetation that had been partially killed off by a winter freeze.

They had been at roughly the identical stage of restoration 4 months in the past once I positioned a copper wire electroculture antenna in one of many pots (south aspect of the plant) to see if the plant would get better quicker.

Sadly, it didn’t.

As you’ll be able to see, the potted plant with out an antenna is considerably additional alongside within the restoration course of.

Moringa Timber

I additionally examined electroculture with my two younger moringa timber.

Not like the earlier examples above, the timber had been rising immediately within the floor. Maybe this may have an effect on the outcomes?

Apparently not.

As soon as once more, the tree rising with out assistance from an electroculture antenna is rising at a quicker and strong clip than the tree that has one.

As with the bougainvillea above, these timber had been broken by a freeze final winter.

I minimize them again to the identical spot on the trunk after which positioned the electroculture antenna subsequent to certainly one of them to see if it might get better/develop quicker.

As you’ll be able to see, the tree with out an antenna is rising considerably higher.

Does Electroculture Actually Work?

The claims surrounding electroculture are very compelling with some sources saying it’s the reply to world starvation.

Sadly, my private makes an attempt to make it work on my property have failed three out of 3 times.

What am I doing unsuitable (if something)? I might recognize any enter these of you who’re extra skilled with this may present.

I might love for electroculture to be true and an precise precept house gardeners may use to extend manufacturing inexpensively and simply.

However to this point, it’s not residing as much as the hype at my home.
