#Electroculture, #Gardening,#Vegetables, Today Mickey teaches us his method of electroculture using mother nature as an energy force to produce bumper yields of vegetables and fruit. Electroculture is a method Mickey has used for over 40 years, harnessing the energy from lightening storms to boost the microorganisms in the soil and plants. #Garden, #Terracing, #TomatoCage, #TomatoBasket,#Lightning, #Electic, #Energy

Saw you on Danny and Wanda's channel and thought I'd stop by for a visit. Such great info you have here, I deided to be a "friend" and ring the bell
Saw you on Deep South and came to check you out. Electroculture is interesting, maybe that's why our cucumbers were insanely productive this year, we trellised with a roll of concrete wire we found in our property from the previous owner! <3
I saw you talking with Danny about this and had to come over and see what electro gardening is.
Where I live, thunderstorms are rare. I have always noticed that the plants love thunderstorms. I used to live where thunderstorms were frequent and I miss them. I love the smell in the air after a thunderstorm. My father-in-law used concrete reinforcement wire to build tomato cages more than 30 years ago. He has since passed, but we still use those cages. They work much better than the storebought ones.
New sub from Deep south homestead.
I got try the Jetstar .
4new here saw you on deep south homestead, I'm here in Dandridge tn .. what's the best ingredient for my soil my is mostly clay
Learned about your channel while listening to You and Mr Danny on Deepsouth Homestead. Welcome and blessings to you and your channel❤
Wow definitely going to try this and where and what type of ground cover that you are using and great video today with Danny @Deep South Homestead
I seen/heard your subscriber request on Deep South. Question: will electro kill earth worms?.🌻
Heard about your channel front deep south homestead
i love you guy's!!!!
We listened to you and Danny mention the electroculture so I wanted to come over and see what your doing. I always noticed how much bigger and better our plants look after a storm. Didn't connect that it was the electricity in the air, I always thought it was just because the plants were getting a good soak from natural raining. 🤷‍♀️ Very interesting, thanks 💝
Mickey,
as I was watching your series on Electroculture,
I got to thinking; have you experimented with
earth batteries connected to your cages?
Your setup is very close to using an earth battery.
You will need a second metal rod of a different
type driven into the ground at the other end of
row of plants.
Here are a few videos on the subject.
They may give you some ideas on
how to adapt the battery to your
Electroculture set up.
I suggest that if you decide to try it,
to use it only on a single group of
plants to see how they compare to
the rest of your garden.

Hay I watch Danny and Wanda on on there you tub show love them guys I all so see you on there show bring there wood love both you guys. And them keep it up from steve c from state of Oregon be good God bless you guys love to be on your show
You mentioned those different countrys you visited, and I immediately thought of my days in the Corp on Med floats, then you confirmed it! Looking good there in TN! p.s. im going try using copper ground Rods you can get from the hardware store and loop copper wire between plants , see what happens
I recognize you from a D-What video. DWhat? Dan &Wanda of Hattiesburg,MS! I know they’re NOT right in the middle of town. Gettin’ to
The point, I admire you drove from 300 miles north. Mebbe Myrtle,MS, just where you are is your biz, but again a’thumbs up👍 for taking wood a long distance to their place.
Excellent tutorial on electro culture. I always enjoy when you are at Deep South Homestead!
New to your channel. I will try this method. Your garden looks so healthy. I have been gardening for over 2 years and still learning I have a small backyard .thank you for sharing your beautiful garden
I'm a handyman and I have seen that in many people's home a ground wire that is seemingly collected to nothing or it has a coil of wire that is connected to nothing but the grounding pole
I've learned some stuff and a few things yeah some things AND stuff
What hillbilly Bullshit ! … Lol !!!!! ……. snake oil cure all salesmen ….. lol….the idea of electroculture has been around since the early 1800s
I thought IRON was bad. I think you're using a pc of rebar, SO can you use any metal? Heard you should use COPPER. Thanks
Of course I gave you thumbs up!!!
So, the reason electroculture can work is that some bacteria in the soil use electron flow for their growth and replication cycle. The bacteria are seeking out the electrons, often accumulating on your rods.
Entertaining idea, but the actual current pathway is from ground to sky. Lightning does not "strike" the earth. It's the other way around, even though it appears to be a "strike".
The static charge on earth (ground) is negative, as is the bottom of clouds. The tops of clouds are charged positive.
What size are those pots from Danny?
I've been really wondering if the effects of electricity on the nitrogen locked in the soil is the working factor in electroculture, as lightning strike sites cause fungal growth to accelerate, and fungi break down detritus to make nutrients absorbable by plants.
My tomatoes are trellised with cattle panels, with t-post supports, and secured with baling wire. Is this enough electrical connection?
Where can I purchase the drip system?
Do you have potatoes growing? New sub. Love the terrace on hills idea
I have been growing vegetables for 3 years and I cannot believe how cheaply vegetables are sold in the store.
My tomatoes and cucumbers would be going for a small fortune for the challenges and effort. Gardening is very rewarding and worth while. The gardeners in this video, it isn’t their first rodeo that is for sure. I have a lot to learn.
Thanks for sharing your valuable knowledge.
Much love and many blessings from Northwest Alabama, Mr. Mickey!
What fertilizer are you using in your drip irrigation? And at what rate. Thanks from coastal SE NC❤
Originally saw you on deepsouthhomestead. Glad to see your on youtube. Do you need a metal rod on every plant, or to just use one or two on either end -making sure all cages are touching each other? And where would I find these stakes? Are they expensive?
So glad I found this channel. I needed a new gardening/homestead channel since we lost our precious Old Alabama Gardener. I love that you guys are in my same zone like he was.
Use chicken wire 6 foot or higher. You will be Amazed. Ground it also 10 foot deep.
Interesting. I've been doing tomatoes with overhead trellis and hang the lines. So much more efficient than fighting pruning through the wire cages. Can do a row in just minutes not fumbling through the wire supports.
heard copper is better than steel- help me understand….
Tomatoes are the night shade family and damage the intestines ability to process food….Look at Italians compared to greek or Turks they are the same race if you go back far enough and the Tomatoes is proven to restrict nutrient uptake….Also look up Victor Schieberger Water has memory watch the whole clip and he states Iron shovels and ploughs over time damages the electrical activity of the soil and Copper must only be used or other Nobel metals obviously Copper is the most cost effective……Like the round cages self supporting….And ya unfortunately i still eat pizza and pasta occasionally…
Quality couples hold hands !
Thank You ! Quality information , Have a Fine Day ! From the Upper Peninsula of Michigan , Kingsford
Might be parallels here. A 60 minutes documentary and a warning not to put your head up too high.
