Peace first. Then a big thank you for the original author of this thread for affording us this opportunity to delve into the thoughts of (those who took the thread seriously and those who didn't) and appreciate the insights offered by the People; however sarcastic, ignorant or inappropriate they may have been from time to time.
Having said that, I think that a few people brought up some good questions about the validity of the subject matter. I think that the vocabulary and explanations used and offered may have been misleading to readers, perhaps, especially to the scientists (count me in that number) in our community. However, I believe that I have an understanding of what the author was/is trying to convey in his/her description of this experiment.
1. On "Energy" - Someone (heisman sp?) brought up the proper use of the term energy. I agree that when used can be deceptive because of the ambiguity of the term; maybe due to improper connotations ascribed or just lack of understanding. In this context I think the more appropriate terminology would be frequency, which can also be broken down further ie. electromagnetic, resonant, etc. Further, some energy must present, because frequency implies movement which requires some energy to occur. Now whether that energy is "in" the crystal or comes from some other phenomenon is beyond our scope.
2. On "Crystals Giving the Plants Energy" - the first usage/misuage of the word "energy" (1.) probably led to these next comments about crystals giving the plants energy, which admittedly does sound a bit absurd. Reexamining this statement with the afore mentioned clarification, this quote can be reinterpreted as "Crystals providing another frequency output in the room that, perhaps, was not present or is enhanced by its presence."
Now, with these two clarifications (1. & 2.) in mind let us also remember that plants are acceptors and transmitors of frequency much like ourselves. Yes, the very obvious ears that hear and eyes that see are recieving transmissions as well as the mouth that speaks and our physical bodies transmitting frequencies (vibrating ie. colors). Everything is in constant flux (vibration). As a simple example for examination to be paralleled to the author's proposed experiment, let's look at music. One simple chord or note (frequency =>crystal) effects each person (plant) differently. The sound may freighten one while exciting another or even bring another to tears. One other simple example being a facial expression which can be perceived (frequencies being accepted and interpreted) and possibly affect mood in certain subjects.
Crystals have been shown to have specific resonant and electromagnetic frequencies, which can be manipulated by its shape and other physical and chemical processes. Quartz is probably the most used in our everyday society. Magnets and crystals are very similar as I understand. I think magnets are even of crystalline microstructure. Just as magnets absorb electro frequency and attract or repel metal objects with that energy (over long periods of time) i believe crystals do store and transmit energy similarly. (Have you seen a woman's mood when she's wearing that diamond?? And say that's your girl...shoooooot how you feelin???) However, I can't find much respectable "University" research to substantiate. Of course there is Rife, well respected, published and awarded in his day, (http://www.rife.org/ -for those truly interested) but his work has been swept under the rug and I haven't heard of many grants or research $$ being given for any real experimentation since. My bet is pharmaceutical companies at it again...but thats another thread im sure lol! I digress..
Although plants don't have ears or eyes (that I know of), I believe,along with many other growers (author included I'm sure...rather I suppose) who take time to care for any plant that have found, that they are able to be affected by frequencies; whether that be music...or LIGHT of course and, perhaps, countless others.
With that being said, I think the hypothesis that crystals, if outputting a frequency that is agreeable with the strain of plant, can have a positive effect on said plant is not far fetched, although from what I can find has not tested thoroughly.
Truly appreciate this thread! Please keep updating, for inquisitive minds are eager to know...I know I am!
And Peace again.
Many Blessings on your spiritual journey

This is an interesting topic that has very little exploration and even less documentation. Which is interesting, because in my experience I have found that those who smoke weed (most of you lol) are often times on spiritual journeys and more likely to practice things like meditation, lucid dreaming, and crystal healing. It just seems like there would be more information out there or stories of using crystals in weed gardens. But since there isn't, I thought I could get it goin!
