Description: Great yields, short maturity and other advantages “It is claimed for the system described in this book that by its aid no back-yard is too small, no soil too poor, to grow vegetables in such quantity and of such quality as will materially lessen a family's food-bill”, wrote in 1921 the author in his introduction. Indeed, after nine years' persistent experiments in the use of electricity and quick-growing methods, A. Carr Bennett developed a method which proved successful “in the stimulating of fertile vegetable seed.” It also increases the speed of germination and the number of plants that come to maturity, and accelerates maturation for example, white turnips reached maturity in just thirty-five days instead of ordinarily about sixty days, which allowed a new production. The Bennett method is one of the various techniques of “electroculture”, which almost disappeared after WW2, when agrochemicals started to replace everything, with all the dramatic consequences we know today. It works on vegetables and on all sorts of “In 1918, electrified seed of this description gave on an average over 30 per cent. increased yield in bushels per acre; the grain produced was of a better quality, and the straw longer and stouter. This is the "larger sphere" which the writer is now contemplating. Imagine how much such an increase in wheat-yield would mean to New South Wales!” Let's replace “New South Wales” by “Mankind” and everybody will understand how important is this book. Almost one century later, we are pleased to bring back this knowledge to all–farmers, gardeners, agronomists and people concerned by food, health and environment.
