Did you know that the British and French governments spent the twenty years between the First and Second World Wars investigating the possibilities of electrifying plants? And did so in almost complete secrecy. The method, which is premised on the idea that you can stimulate plant growth using electricity, is not new. In fact, it's been around since the 1700s! It was just the first sign of a completely new science or, as many others would have it, pseudo-science… Electroculture 🌱⚡ Think of Electroculture as giving your garden a little zap of energy, supercharging plant growth and health. From enhancing nutrient uptake to improving seed germination, Electroculture promises a greener, more bountiful garden. Who knew that a little electricity could do so much? So, why hasn’t Electroculture become the next big thing? Just as Electroculture was ‘sparking’ interest, Big Ag was gearing up with synthetic fertilizers and chemical pesticides. The allure of quick, consistent results from chemicals overshadowed the experimental and unconventional methods of using electricity. Electroculture was left in the dust, overshadowed by the rise of industrial farming practices. Are you curious about how Electroculture might transform your garden?
