PSA: I used to think talking to plants was a dumb joke until my basil grew twice as big

My neighbor in Austin said she chats with her garden every morning, and I laughed. But after my own basil started struggling, I tried it for a week and the new growth was insane. Has anyone else had a weird tip like that actually work?

My grandma swore by playing classical music for her tomatoes, and those things got huge. Never tried it myself though.

Yeah my uncle did something like that with his peppers, @grantp14. He played talk radio for them, all day. I swear his plants were always way bushier than mine. Might be the vibrations more than the music.

Maybe @grantp14's grandma had the right idea with those vibrations.
