What effect does music have on plant growth?










In humans, music has a strong effect on our health and mood, and over the years, people have claimed that the same effect of music has been observed on plants, too. Plants are sensitive by nature, and many people claim that they feel just like humans do.


What effect does music have on plant growth?
We think that the classical music will help the plant growth and that the rock music will hinder its growth since studies have showed that classical music even concentrates the human brain and is good for you. As rock music make you to feel steady, heavily, stronger and stressed.


Experiment
Take the three flowerpots and label them, one with classical, one with rock, and one with no music. Put all them in separate rooms and put the rock music by the rock plant, put the classical CD by the classical plant and leave the other plant in a quite room without any music. Classical music is Fur Elise and rock music is Ya-Pid (poison). Watered them daily and after a week and recorded your results on how each plant is doing.
 The flowerpots are all placed where they are able to receive the same amount of sunlight every day. All flowerpots are also watered with the same amount of water, once time for everyday.




The height of the 5 plants in each group is measured by ruler every week and their average height is calculated and recorded in the graph given below.



After five week of experiment, the following were the results. The one that was in the best condition was the plant that was in the room with classical music. The second best plant was the one in the room without music and the one that didn't do so good was the one in the room with rock music. However, plant height is not significantly different. If we had had time for this experiment, we would have seen significant difference of plant height.
I know what most of you are thinking, there's no way that that can be possible.
Some of these include how to properly plant them and what kinds of flowerpots to use. Other ways involve the kind of soil and fertilizer to use. But some of the interesting techniques that are said to aid in plant growth are talking to plants and playing music. What is the connection between plant growth and sound?
  



What makes plants grow?                                                                                  
Starting from a seed, all plants have to fight to survive. In physics, sound is a vibration that propagates as a typically audible mechanical wave of pressure Vibrations, such as sound and physical disturbances, affect plant growth. As plants grow, there are subtle vibrations that you do not see or feel. External vibrations, whether from music, sound or a physical disturbance, affect the internal vibrations, either stimulating growth or hampering it. Mild vibrations increase growth in plants, while harsher, stronger vibrations have a negative effect.
Tested the music would have effect on plants. The graph shows what was done in the experiment, but basically what found was a direct relationship between the sound vibrations and the growth of the plant. Finally, it seems as though it is certain whether music really does have an effect. Classical music accelerated rice growth but rock music interrupted rice growth
