Electroculture Trial | Potato Harvest | No Dig Gardening | Self Sufficiency | Smallholding UK

Today on the smallholding I am harvesting two beds of second early potatoes and comparing the yield between the bed with electroculture antennas and the bed without.

Maybe not a big difference, but an interesting experiment all the same.

Hello Mylo

8.6% is not quite statistically significant (you'd need 10.32% at the 95% confidence level) but it's still significant, interesting experiment. Diego Footer has just done an interesting long interview with an electroculture expert, the system he describes is a lot more complicated involving connecting his elaborate antennas to N-S galv wires burried in parallel lines every 20ft; I did a bit of research looking for side by side experiments, some interesting stuff from the UK gov in the 1930's. China has over 3k acres under glass with electroculture too. I'm open minded, but I think it's worth addressing all other limiting factors before investing in the infrastucture (mineral balancing, soil biology etc).

I agree the interview is really enlightened, I thought to myself at last someone who I can take seriously, seems to separate mumbo jumbo from fact (as much as you can) and most importantly he's reliant on it to make an income as in he's a practicing market gardener. I'm also an open minded sceptic but he convinced me it's worth an experimental look into next year.
