This is an interesting discussion. I have a question that you might be able to
answer. There is a piece of land near me that I would love to put an orchid
greenhouse on. It's only detriment is that it is right next to a railroad
track. Trains come by fairly often at all hours. Would this disruption of peace
have any effect on orchid plants? If the vibes theory works, there would be
plenty at this location.

Viateur, the man probably read Agriculture books from Russia from
shortly after WWII. You can find it all there,
wheat especially likes classical music, it does not grow at all when
hearing jazz.
Some people just never learn.
