After scientists discovered this secret, they thought: Can crops listen to music to promote crop production? Experiments have proved that this is possible. A French horticulturist put headphones on a tomato and let it "enjoy" music for three hours every day. As a result, the tomato grew to 2.5 kilograms, setting a world record. Scientists at the French National Research Center use ultrasonic waves to cultivate vegetables, and vegetables "listen to songs and dance" in the sound of ultrasonic "music", and the growth rate has more than doubled. Scientists in the former Soviet Union and Britain also used ultrasonic waves to grow 25 kilograms of radish and 27 kilograms of cabbage. In China, scientists have also treated seeds of Chinese herbal medicines such as platycodon grandiflorum with ultrasonic waves, and the germination rate has generally increased by 2 to 4 times.
why do sound waves promote crop growth? Scientists initially believe that sound waves can accelerate the photosynthesis of plants and promote cell division, thus accelerating the growth of plants.
If this mystery is completely uncovered, people may meet the demand of crops for "music" in some way, so as to achieve the purpose of increasing crop production. Even in cultivating excellent varieties of crops, it has opened up another "shortcut".
