The expirement showed that music somehow seemed to stimulate the plants' growth. It is interesting that the tomatoes listening to Classical and Heavy Metal music had grown the most! |

![]() Thanks Chris...reason I asked is, the last contest I picked 200 & Pete picked 275. There was 248 fingers on so Pete was the closest, but I won because the rule was "closest without going over the amount". (Sorry Pete
![]() With everyone picking a different #, there can't be a tie. Thanks for the contest!
