==Connection with Plants==

Sound waves are able to directly impact the growth cycle of a plant. Sound frequencies in the form of music such as that by Beethoven has been proven to help promote quicker growth for crops. South Korean scientists, who played classical pieces including Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata in rice fields, say they have identified plant genes that can “hear”. This comes as a finding complementary to the discovery of plant consciousness being a reality.

In specific terms, the study found that sounds at specific frequencies – 125Hz and 250Hz – made genes rbcS and Ald more active, whereas sound waves at 50HZ made their less active. Certain sound frequencies, when compiled into musical form, seem to have a beneficial impact on a plant’s growth. The conclusion that can be made is that any form of sound waves, be it spoken word, musical song, or otherwise, will directly impact the growth and being of a plant.
