Joel Sternheimer, French physicist and musician, “composes musical note sequences which help plants grow. Each note is chosen to correspond to an amino acid in a protein with the full tune corresponding to the entire protein".... "Each plant type has a different sequence of notes to stimulate its growth. Undesirable plants (weeds) could be inhibited. This is done with EME, in this case sound waves, pulsed to the right set of frequencies, thus affecting the plant at an energetic and sub-molecular level.” (147)
Sternheimer’s concept could make chemical fertilizers unnecessary, providing the world with an inexpensive and easily accessible way of enhancing plant growth as well as eliminating the production, transportation and environmental hazards of chemical fertilizers. When tomatoes were treated to Sternehimer’s “songs”, they increased in size and were significantly sweeter, even though the tunes were played for only three minutes a day. He developed melodic phrases that blocked enzymes needed by the tomato mosaic virus, preventing harm to the tomato plants. These practices would be especially beneficial to third world countries.

Sound can greatly affect people, too, and experiments need to be done before wide use of “plant music” proliferates. Sternheimers warned musicians not to play them, as one of his people ... “had difficulty breathing after playing the tune for "cytochrome C”... a growth promoter. (147)
The Australian publication, Nexus, introduced an article about... “Sonic Bloom (tm), a radical plant growth method involving application of a specially developed organic foliar (pertaining to leaves) nutrient spray together with an oscillating sound frequency.” Plants opened pores on their leaf surfaces. A combination of classical music and rhythmic twitters and whistles make up the holistic fertilizer... “consisting of 55 trace minerals, amino acids and seaweed, which is then sprayed onto the plant’s surface.” Tremendously increased crops resulted. (149)
The editor of the Nexus article tried it on his 3000 organic apple and pear trees.... “It worked wonderfully, and I found myself with superior, disease free, crisp juicy apples.” He later introduced the method to Australian and New Zealand growers. The U.S. Department of Agriculture, Albion Laboratories and others documented their efforts. Although there were few disease or pest problems, what was most remarkable was the vastly superior taste. Even a pawpaw and palm nursery, macadamia nut grower and chrysanthemum producer benefitted.... “South Australian medicinal herb growers are reporting significant increases in the nutritional values of Sonic Bloom-treated plants.” Hawaiian Islands growers also had great success.

"Biodynamic Agriculture” is a term used by the late scientist-philosopher-mystic, Rudolf Steiner. Tompkins and Bird, in Secrets of the Soil, explain Steiner’s methods and his theory that invisible, etheric energies from the moon and the planets are necessary for a healthy soil. By following his methods, farms have prospered in Pennsylvania, North Dakota and other states, and millions of previously barren acres in Australia have been rejuvenated. (148)
Steiner’s revolutionary processes include filling old cow horns with cow manure and burying them over the winter to ferment. When dug up in the spring, the manure has become extremely rich and energetic, sweet smelling and clean. This material is then mixed with water and stirred in periodically reversed directions to stimulate vortexes of energy. Extremely powerful, only very tiny amounts need to be spread over fields and gardens. (147)
Crop growers are using EM waves to discourage harmful insects and diseases, and some Austrians use rock dust to both nourish farmlands and forests and prevent acid rain affects. The Hunzas of Central Asia are being studied for their agricultural methods that seem to promote longevity. Around the world gardeners and farmers are quietly and carefully planting, saving and developing non-hybridized seeds, which are rapidly disappearing from our environment. (147)
