Many years ago it was discovered that plants were affected by sound. Studies involving both organic and inorganic matter show the affects caused by sound that few people ever thought possible. Of the following authors and researchers in the field of sound and its affects on things living and non-living, I found most interesting the work of Mr. Masaru Emoto. In his book Messages from Water, he provides factual evidence that sound affects the molecular structure of water. Mr. Emoto has visually documented these molecular changes in water by means of his photographic techniques. He freezes droplets of water then examines them under a dark field microscope that has photographic capabilities. His work clearly demonstrates the diversity of the molecular structure of water as it is affected by its environment. To read about the affect sound has upon the structure of the water, go to www.adhikara.com to view slides. Jonathan Goldman in his book Healing Sounds: The Power of Harmonics, presented the fact that the molecular structure of the water can be affected by sound (as demonstrated by Mr. Emoto's research) is extremely important. Others who have come to similar conclusions: Joachim Ernst Berendt, The World Is Sound; Joscelyn Godwin, The Mystery of the Seven Vowels; Don G. Campbell, The Roar of Silence. If sound can have a profound effect on the "nonliving" (water) how can anyone argue that it does not affect the living?

Enter Sonic Bloomo

Sonic Bloom consists of a sound generator or sound enhanced CD and a nutrient spray (Hence "sonic = sound, bloom = nutrients," according to Dan Carlson.) The sound generator produces tones in the four to six kilohertz range, the same range as many song birds. In order to explain this more fully I need to first introduce you to the inventor, Dan Carlson.

While serving our country in the Korean conflict, Dan witnessed starvation first hand. This had such a profound impact upon him, that when he left the service, he entered the University of Minnesota. …
