Why Should You Talk to Your Plants?
In 1848 Dr. Gustav Theodor Fechner a German professor came up with the idea of talking to your plants. Dr. Fechner thought that plants had emotions just like humans and talking to your plant would grow healthy if you paid attention to it and talked to it. Another person named Luther Burbank also wrote that even though plants do not understand words spoken by humans, but plants had the capability to understand meaning of speech. It was like a telepathic understand between human and plants. Then in April of 1970 a dentist in named George Milstein in New York confirmed that classical or soft soothing music would help your plant grow, and listening to loud and harsh aggressive music like alternative or rock music would help your plant into an early death.
Well the way the human body works is that when we exhale we are exhaling carbon dioxide (CO2). Flowers, trees, and food crops love carbon dioxide, carbon dioxide is the basic material that plants use during photosynthesis, that is the process they use when they are trying to convert solar energy into food. So if you are up close with your plant and talking to them face to face, then you are giving your plant that wonderful carbon dioxide for it to grow and be healthy for you. This is one of the reasons why people say that you should talk to your plant. And of course you can get something out of it too, you can talk to your plant and share your ideas and thoughts about stuff that is going on in your life, you can tell them how beautiful they are and if you do this often you will soon notice that your plant is giving something even better to you, its going to show you its natural beauty of having him in your garden or home. So do not forget to talk to your plant, they will pay you back by showing their real true colors and it will make you happy.
