Believe it or not, heavy metal music is definitely beneficial for your plants.

 

Tonight on SBS a show called

Mythbusters starts here in 1/2 an hour, will have to tune in and see this for myself. :: I would love to be able to play with some of their sort of toys, I would have to win lotto first though.

do you reacon it works with something more pleasing on the ears e.g funk/soul/jazz/trip-hop etc...? and how many decibels do you need to play it at?

I saw that, it was very interesting, especially to me, a budding sound engineer

I have a theory.. Everything has a resonant frequency, even plants and different parts of plants would have different resonant frequencies. That would of course change as the plant grew. Now if these frequencies were continously vibrating the plant, maybe even the roots, it could have an effect, stimulating growth and strength, creating a stronger, healthier plant, with a stronger root system.

The fact that Metal was more effective than Classical may come down to the fact that metal tends to be very "Frequency intensive" with a huge amount of sound across the frequency spectrum from as low as 30Hz up to 15KHz all coming out at once. That could explain why it was the best. So in short, get any music or anything that emits a huge amount of blasting high, mid and low sounds all at once into your grow room and see what happens.

This is very plausible imo.

I reckon you should go out and buy some John Zorn CDs, The sounds are crazy everything from classical to Industrial death metal the little ladies would love it.
