There is another forum where a few are experimenting with this using a 120vAC to 4.5vDC and I forget what the milliamps were (350mA rings a bell maybe), but it was a cell phone charger basically modified and electrodes placed in the soil....it vegged about twice as big, twice as fast compared to the non-electrified plants. Unfortunately no-one has gotten past the veggin so far, but it certainly would appear it does increase the veggin mass and much quicker too. I'm just finishing up some stuff, but I might try this next batch...looks interesting. I have plenty of old phone chargers lying around!
I would really like to see what it does to a flowering plant....twice the bud in half the time??? Yea, I'm interested!
TANKJR Reviewed by TANKJR on . Electricity and Plant Growth Note: This is far from conclusive, nor is it an original idea. Wish I had the time and space to do a real controlled experiment, but my hope is that is where the community comes in. I grew four seedlings (two different strains - one indica; one sativa) under identical conditions except for the addition of electricity. One plant used a solar panel putting out about 3.5 volts and one used a 9v battery. The electrodes were placed several inches deep about 1.5" away from the stalk. Rating: 5
