Electrified Plants

Inspired by the discovery that muscles respond to electrical current, Mary Shelley had her Dr. Frankenstein create life with electricity. What monstrosities could she have imagined had she only known about electrically motivated plants? Join Exploratorium biologist Alex Pinigis to learn about the similar electrical systems in our brains and fast-moving plans. This demonstration of electrified plants would make Victor Frankenstein proud.

Supercharged nugs are going to be amazing

[@hommie422]

I'm working on it, being using positive charged and negative charged water with a 30pound magnet.

[@brianfitch5469]

It's been done for decades already. Electroculture on the grows. Run copper wires into the dirt of the plants. Wrap around a stick or use copper piping.

Science is Amazing.

​@@hommie422 hows the result? Im thinking of putting a magnetvin each pot. Any tips would be much appreciated. Ty

Thank you Mr. Alex Pinigis!

[@floorfungus4209]

this was educational and I enjoyed it alot. Thank you Alex!

[@darkdawg69]

great presentation!

[@DavidLindes]

Ahh, I miss After Dark. I've moved away from the Bay... will have to try to find something similar in my new locale. Glad to have these, though, too! Thanks, team!

Thank for acknowledge the work of the first Spanish nobel price SANTIAGO Ramón y Cajal. SANTIAGO I think can be translated as Jacob.

Amazing

Awesome possum

[@michelbisson6645]

very good thank you

[@johnlerner5346]

EXCELLENT WORK. THANK YOU. I AM ALMOST DONE BUILDING A NEW SYSTEM

[@Onceuponajuan]

Oooh

[@johnlerner5346]

@@Onceuponajuan he is right. I did it. I have a plant plugged into a lamp. The lamp can be turned off and on by touching the plant :) However, Have not figured out how to use a midi to reverse it so the tree plays music, using box tones, but working on it..

[@Onceuponajuan]

I would love to see it! or progress of your project, you should record it!

[@Onceuponajuan]

@@johnlerner5346 try having musical tones change at different plant frequencies and record the patterns...

Are ‘Plants’ Electric?

[@saramariegriffith]

Can you please add a link on where to find the app for the demonstration at the end?

[@thelastofthelemmings6279]

is the voltage gain in the membrane akin to a battery?

[@ElectricUniverseEyes]

🤜🏼⚡️🤛🏻

[@crazysquirrel9425]

Will electrifying the soil kill harmful pathogens and related?
If so, what voltage, amperage, and electrodes are needed.

[@RickSanchez-fx3lt]

Replace that camera guy

[@richardwooten5490]

I JUST MISSED THE POINT IN ALL OF THIS ! I THINK MY VOLTAGE IS GETTING LOW . JERRY TENNANT WOULD HAVE UNDERSTOOD ! !
