Are you a Corm Whisperer?

Abnshrek · 04-24-2014, 06:52 AM

Everyone knows that music & sounds effect plant growth. A tone (F) for 3 hours can help a plant where as for 8 hours a day can kill the plant.. So to the point of the Q?
For you Gentlemen out there that talk to your Banana's (& other plants) it is said plants have a more position reaction to Women's voices, must be the motherly instinct, them being soothing, genuine even.. So gentlemen you want to practice your Corm whispering skills (this could be difficult), or you could just let your woman, or Women in Fred's case Sweet talk your Banana's, and other plants into growing faster...

Some scientists suggest that music improves gardeners' moods and therefore plants grow stronger and healthier in this environment. A study in Great Britain recently found that women's voices make plants grow faster than men's voices. In a report in the Telegraph, "Women's voices 'make plants grow faster' finds Royal Horticultural Society," Richard Alleyne writes that the study disproved scientists' original hypothesis that men's voices would be more effective. Colin Crosbie, garden superintendent at RHS, said they do not know why but he believes, "It could be that they have a greater range of pitch and tone that affects the sound waves that hit the plant. Sound waves are an environmental effect just like rain or light."
