How to create basic Lakhovsky coils using different colours for different plants 🌱

I explained in my last post how to create two decent sized Lakhovsky coils from a single vacuum cleaner extension chord, for the purposes of increasing productivity or healing sick plants.

But what I failed to mention was how this particular design of coil (which contains a fair bit of copper) is better used on small trees than small plants.

Certainly it would work on small plants but one must always seek to use their copper as effectively as possible.

For this reason I chose a cherry tree in the garden for the coil, attaching it at the desired angle with twigs pushed into the ivy.

The tree isn't sick but it never gives a particularly big harvest and sometimes (when it rains a lot) the taste can be quite watery.

We have five cherry trees in total, so I will wire up two of them with coils and compare the difference in spring when they produce fruit.

What I want to show you in this post is how to make a super basic coil for smaller plants.

I bought a 25m roll of electrical cable for €8 which at 26cm each gives me a total of 96 Lakhovsky coils. This seems to me like a pretty good price to pay for the potential to double or even triple the growth and productivity of 96 plants, either in your garden or in pots.

To maintain the best possible circles I have used the natural shape of the roll.

Some people like to overlap the ends so that they both fit into the same piece of wood, but in the interest of making our copper go as far as possible, this is the more efficient design.

All you need now is a cat, a glue gun and some wooden skewers. Cat optional.

Together we came up with this as our first design, using toothpicks to prop up the lower end.

Here it is on a little clementine plant with the desired angle of 20-30 degrees.

The opening of the coil must be facing North. You can be out by up to 5 degrees but best to get it as perfect as you can.

I chose this clementine because it is sick.

Let's see what happens...

Later in the day I was watching this great interview when I learned about the effect of colour.

I will come back to this point in just one moment. For now I want to show you my second design of coil stabiliser, which seems much simpler to mass produce.

When I glue the sticks to the coils (using a glue gun) I attach them at 90 degrees, as straight as I can.

Once they are upright the coil naturally slopes downward at the desired angle.

And so, let's get to the main point of this post now.

Colour coded creativity

It has been understood for many years already (thanks to the work of Yannick) that colour plays a role in plant growth.

The following screenshots are from that interview I mentioned.

Plants which enjoy the shade respond better to the blue/purple end of the spectrum while plants which prefer full sun respond to the orange/red colours. Which kinda makes sense when we think about it.

There are always exceptions to this basic rule however and it is worth experimenting as much as you can before deciding on the final colour to use.

Here you can see a sick grape vine (which previously produced no fruit at all) responding really well to the colour blue. Within one season it was producing massive bunches of healthy grapes.

Thinking about this I am wondering now if these vines responded to blue because they were missing copper sulphate from their nutrition?

Perhaps, if we have sick plants, we must seek to identify the colour of the nutrient they are lacking?

Whatever the reason I am most grateful to Andrea for sharing this information freely (as it should be!) because we have two decent sized grape vines in our garden which are totally useless, producing just a few very small bunches each year. And I think you know already I what I intend to do with them.

My intuition also tells me that the seasons play a part in this. EVERYTHING on this great playground works in cycles, so a certain colour may be effective at a certain time of year for a certain plant, but that may not be true at a different time of year.

With this in mind I created an army of coils with a full spectrum of colours.

For some I used electrical tape.

This one has silver gaffer tape.

Others I painted.

Yep, when I'm into something, I just go for it.

Tried to produce a lot of purple & red, to cover those two extremes of the colour spectrum.

Looks pretty hey.

Not really sure where black, white & silver fit into this spectrum, but still gonna try them out regardless.

And finally, here they are in the garden, working their magic on a bed of peas which just happens to be at the perfect size for this experiment.

The colour spectrum runs in the middle row from one side to the other, leaving the outer two rows as the control group.

After that we placed this lot on random lucky plants!

Then Esteban found some ice.

After which Luna suggested we put a piece of this ice next to one of the pea plants (instead of a coil) and why not I said! Sometimes you just have to follow the flow (especially when it is dictated by little people) and I would not at all be surprised if it turned out that little hands with good intentions combined with naturally formed ice might just have some amazing effect???

Then my family left me and Fifi (the cat) alone in the garden to give the pea bed some Reiki in silence.

Finally I took this photo and smiled at the perfection of the moment.

The beginning of something great I feel.

Will let you know in a few months which colour works best for peas in winter!

Final thoughts

In closing I wanted to show you this drawing done by my two children yesterday.

I found it stuck to the back of the sofa and did a double-take because the tower looks exactly the same as the Irish round tower I wrote about one week ago in this post.

I think you will agree the resemblance is uncanny.

What's interesting here is that neither of them saw my post!

Nor did either of them know that I have just ordered a paramagnetic growing tower which looks like this.

They just felt my energy (which is particularly intense around this subject) and it became infused into their drawing.

You may call it coincidence but this is not the first time I have witnessed the transfer of information or feelings between myself and other members of my family without the use of words and it gives me great comfort to imagine that everything I have learned up to this point in my life was just the prelude to a golden age in which things we once believed impossible suddenly become a part of our every day lives.

Following the techniques of Neville Goddard I have for the last year been visualising, just before I fall asleep each night, a food forest outside my earthship home through which I am slowly walking, as if in slow motion with my arms outstretched almost touching the branches of the trees.

In the final part of my visualisation (usually close to falling asleep by this point) I see a form electricity flowing between my fingertips and the trees, a two way exchange of sorts, a relationship of respect bridged by some kind of magical energy. Like how it looks in the movies!

Then I sleep.

It's funny because I had no idea why I included the electrical fingers aspect of my vision until this moment and as I stand now poised to embark on this great electrical adventure with my family I have never felt more certain about anything in my life...

Electroculture is what I am here to do.

But not only that, I will create new innovations which will drive this movement forward, documenting it in a way which others are not capable of doing. I'm actually a film-maker by trade, specialising in time-lapse and drone techniques. I worked on Snatch with Guy Ritchie back in the year 2000 and got into documentaries after that, shooting, directing & editing a few crazy things before drifting aimlessly for years in and out of various different aspects of film-making, never really content with the kind of films I was making.

Until now.

For the first time in decades I believe I have a reason to become a film-maker again. And I think that's all I have to say about that.

Let 2023 be the year of the electrified vegetable!

Everything is now.

We are one.

Love & Light 🌱
