Hey #grownostr does anyone have experience with #electroculture #electrogardening? We learned about it in the last couple of days, found some scrap wire in the shop and made some antennas. We do lots of gardening and want to add this to the mix.

Any advice on how many, where or other info on the topic we need to know about?

This sounds intriguing. I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts after you have it implemented.

So the issue here is the elements the aerial is made from. You might have some great results but overtime you will be putting more in the soil. Copper and zinc are needed by plants in small amounts and provide important roles in regard to plant health but they are also immobile so need to be locked up by fungi, etc if there is an excess.

Unless you have tested already you won't know what your levels are. It's safer to focus on improving soil with innoculated and charged up biochar. You can't really have too much carbon as it buffers almost everything.

Thanks! We are actually looking into biochar as well. been studying along with Jack Spirco to understand it better. sounds like it may be a good combo to use with this, and a good mulch/carbon layer as well.
