HOW MUSIC AFFECTS PLANTS
By ALICE_1616

Music is healing. Music is inspirational. Music helps us grow as a person and it really does help. Not only humans but plants too. It is scientifically proven that a particular kind of sound can help certain plants grow in a more systematic manner and quickly.

In 1962, an Indian botanist conducted several experiments on music and plant growth. He found that certain plants grew an extra 20 percent in height when exposed to music, with a considerably greater growth in biomass. He found similar results for agricultural crops, such as peanuts, rice and tobacco, when he played music through loudspeakers placed around the field. The sound waves create a vibration in the normal growth system of the plant.

And plants prefer a certain kind of music as well. But do plants prefer Badshah or Arijit? According to another study, plants exposed to rock music were grown in an unusual shape while those feeling soft vibrations of classical music grew healthy.

Music is indeed a universal language understood by every living being. But everyone doesn't support this. Researchers at the University of California aren't so quick to jump to conclusions about the effects of music on plant growth. They say that so far there is no conclusive scientific evidence that playing music for plants helps them grow, and that more scientific tests are needed with rigorous control over factors such as light water and soil composition. Interestingly, they suggest that plants exposed to music may thrive because they receive top-level care and special attention from their caretakers. Food for thought!
