Can someone SCOTTY REAL tell me about electro-culture?

Use AA battery copper wire for about an hour a day???

Maybe Grambo and Dude can help an OG

I’ve used it in my setup for years. I think its kinda like using “all the bottles” when feeding your girls. Does it really help? Is it really doing anything? Depending all other environmental factors…maybe, maybe not but I think it works for me. I understand the logic behind it and agree in theory it should be good for growing. Just my two cents though…

Wow that’s cool stuff. I hadn’t heard of it before. I did find a couple studies that said it stimulated secondary metabolites. This ones pretty cool: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S156753942400255X

@scottyreal I just watched a cast and these old timers were talking about “grounding” their plants with copper wire. Someone mentioned a bed sheet with copper wire running through it to help ground you while you sleep. Somehow, he uses the sheet in his indoor grow. Cuts and shaves the neg and pos prongs, strips it down except the grounding wire, and then? He didn’t get into specifics. Reading everything I can find. Seems like it should be true. I want it to be true, maybe. Would love to know if anyone legit does this, or if it’s “common core” science!

Idk interesting for sure. I know old school plumbers would use copper ground wire in drain fields to retard root growth into the field. Copper sulfate also kills roots very well. Me I don’t think I’d use it just based on that. More information please 😬
