Seed Treatments
Nowadays many seeds are treated with neonicotinoids and other harmful chemicals. Neonicotinoids are used in agriculture to protect crops from insects but they impact bees’ ability to forage for nectar, learn, and remember where flowers are located. This is not the kind of seed treatment we should be doing.
With electroculture methods we can increase the germination rate of the seeds and in many cases even the growth rate of the plants, all without hurting bees or any other pollinators. The methods I am aware of consist of exposing seeds to light, or a magnetic field, or a high voltage electrostatic field. What follows is an explanation of how to apply each of these methods.
The Light Method
This innovative method involves using a powerful light source, such as a car headlight, directed onto a mirror that has a 500,000-gauss magnet positioned behind it. The process works as follows:
Light Reflection: Shine the bright light onto the mirror to reflect the light.
Focusing the Light: Use a 10x lens or higher to focus the reflected light onto seeds placed in an aluminum foil container. The foil serves as an effective reflector, directing concentrated light onto the seed scars, known botanically as hilums.
The Impact of Magnetic and Light Stimulation
During this process, the combination of magnetic and light stimulation causes the seed scars (hilums) to open up. This opening allows for increased absorption of essential elements, including:
Water
Carbon Dioxide
Oxygen
Liquid Fertilizer (if used)
As a result, this method accelerates seed germination and leads to faster plant growth. Interestingly, using a magnifying glass, you can observe the openings of the seed scars, providing a fascinating glimpse into this dynamic process.
The Magnetic Field Method
Research indicates that many seeds germinate and grow approximately two times faster when exposed to the north pole of an artificial magnetic field prior to planting, compared to seeds that are not exposed. Notably, wheat seeds exhibit an astonishing growth rate, sprouting about five times faster in the first 48 hours after exposure. In some species, this accelerated growth rate can persist until they reach maturity.
The effects of magnetic treatment prior to germination seem to remain active in certain seeds for at least 18 months post-application. Interestingly, the duration of exposure plays a crucial role in growth response.
Seeds exposed to magnetism for 48, 144, 240, or 336 hours demonstrate more significant growth than those subjected to intermediate periods, with most seeds showing optimal results after 240 hours (or 10 days).
According to the patent for this innovative process, the original machine designed to apply the magnetic field to the seeds looks like the image below.
To replicate this machinery effectively, one can purchase a rock tumbler (see image below) and position a flat rectangular neodymium magnet beneath the rotating container.
Benefits of Magnetic Treatment:
Above-ground seeds treated with the south pole of a magnet show enhanced germination and growth, leading to larger leaves in vegetables.
For best results with beet, potato, carrot, or turnip seeds, it is recommended to use the north pole of the magnet.
Additionally, the magnetic influence appears to soften the surface tension of water, facilitating easier absorption for both seeds and plants.
The High Voltage Electrostatic Field Method
In the 1980s, Swiss scientists Dr. Guido Ebner and Heinz Schürch unveiled a ground-breaking method known as “The Primeval Code.” This innovative technique involved exposing cereal seeds and fish eggs to an electrostatic field—a high-voltage field devoid of current—during laboratory experiments.
Unexpectedly, these experiments led to the emergence of primeval organisms from the seeds and eggs, including:
- A fern that botanists were not able to identify.
- Primeval corn producing up to twelve ears per stalk.
- Wheat that matured in a remarkable four to six weeks.
- Additionally, the experiments resulted in the revival of Old Trout (extinct for more than 130 years), which exhibited impressive characteristics:
-
- One-third larger, heavier, and fleshier than typical trout.
- Increased strength and more, sturdier teeth.
- Vibrant scales displaying unusual colors.
- Adult males developed a distinctive lower jaw that protruded forward, resembling powerful salmon hooks.
- These giant trout, with their elongated lower jaws, had been extinct in Europe for 130 years. It appeared as though the seeds and eggs, when subjected to the electrical field, accessed their genetic memories, reverting to a more primitive version of themselves.
Hybrid Corn Experiments
The researchers also experimented with regular hybrid corn, specifically using highly cultivated and non-viable GMO varieties, which require farmers to purchase new seeds annually. The process involved drawing corn grains into an electric field and placing them in water-sealed Petri dishes for three days. The results were remarkable:
The corn grew abundantly, producing an unusually high number of stalks in clusters, where typically only one stalk is found in maize.
This phenomenon suggested that the corn plant had “remembered” its ancient form, with all relevant information encoded in its genes. Importantly, there was no genetic engineering or chemical interventions involved in this process.
Advantages of The Primeval Code
The benefits of using this method are profound:
- Improved germination rates.
- Enhanced resistance to pests and extreme weather conditions.
- Absence of toxic chemicals.
- Potential regression to a form preceding genetic modification.
To implement this method for our seeds, we will need to construct a specialized plastic box featuring a Plexiglas drawer and metal plates at both the top and bottom. The design will include:
Power Supply Connection: A jack for connecting a power supply.
LED Indicator: An LED light to indicate when the device is powered on.
The power supply will be adjustable, offering settings of 3V, 6V, 9V, and 12V. This power supply will feed into a voltage multiplier housed within the box, behind the drawer.
WARNING: High voltage can be lethal. Build entirely at your own risk. If you’re not sure what you’re doing, you should hire a professional for this project or just buy an off the shelf HV DC Power supply.
When working around high voltage, always wear rubber gloves and rubber shoes; one mistake can be deadly. Before touching capacitors, always discharge them by shorting their terminals.
The voltage multiplier can be constructed by cascading multiple Villard doublers to achieve the desired voltage levels.
The output from the multiplier needs to be connected to the two plates so the seeds in the drawer will be in the electrostatic field produced by the high voltage between the plates.
A 7 stage multiplier will yield:
- 768 V when set to 6V
- 1152 V when set to 9V
- 1536 V when set to 12V
The following is a table of recommended voltages for some seeds.
