life force experiments?

| I am wondering if anyone else here are doing any plant experiments related to "subtle" energy flow, life force (sometimes called chi ) , or has done biodynamic growing? This is, I find, a valuable area to experiment with and a very large realm! I have done only a few experiments, one with a refractometer to check brix levels , and various others related to getting notoriously tough seeds to germinate in a very short time period by working with the life force energy of them myself. Other things would be any experiments related to paramagnetism or harmonious flow placement in the garden (like companion planting except deeper) ....I have some good experience with the plant placement, but none on paramagnetism. I am very intrigued by soil health and it is a hobby of sorts to explore different ways to achieve good sustainability.
Thanks,
Chris |

Whitejade,
As you conduct your experiments are you keeping an eye on and recording the phases of the moon in conjunction with noting results of your trials? Without going into a lot of detail and with over 50 years of plant experience my conclusion is that the phases of the moon are 'the life force' for all living things on earth. |

| I have also noted the very same thing Nandina...the moon cycles are really vital as markers...but I can sense a lot of cycles at work too. Some we may have labels for and some not. I am excited to embark on a new experiment , probably this week if I can get it all together..I am ever interested in soil health and in learning the in's and out's of working with and fostering the microbial world within soil. Saw a great post on the Soil forum about soil in the Amazon called Terra Preta (look this up in any search engine to get the scoop). So I am going to grow some micro greens on a sunny windoowsill. One tray will have regular soil less mix ...one will have soil-less mix and some crushed charcoal (based on the analysis of terra preta soil) and in the last I will have a combination of soil-less mix, charcoal and some volcanic stone and or clay pottery shards. Obviusly everything else will be the same, including the soil-less mix (I buy 2 cu foot bags at a time) I wish I had enough room to have three more pots because I can think of a lot more combinations! I will just have to keep running experiments I think but am happy we will be able to eat the produce :) (from what I hear micro greens are the new rage in haute cuisine :) |
