A Forgotten 1880's Experiment...
❄️ SECRETS OF THE FROZEN NORTH
There’s something strange about trees.
Ever notice how conifers look like lightning rods?
Their sharp tips… Their narrow, conical shape… The way they stretch toward the sky—like they’re reaching for something we can’t see.
Hold onto that thought.
Because before we get there, I need to tell you about a man who saw something no one else did.
It’s the 1880s. Deep in the Arctic tundra, beneath a sky that never truly darkens, a lone scientist trudges through the snow. The cold bites at his face. The wind howls. His breath hangs in the air like smoke.
But he isn’t here for the view.
Carl Lemström is after something far stranger.
He wants to know if the Northern Lights… can make plants grow better.
Now, most people in the late 1800s were not out pursuing cutting-edge science.
They were surviving.
Grinding in coal mines. Choking on factory soot. Plowing endless fields by hand.
Leisure? Forget about it.
If you weren’t born into wealth, your life was an endless loop of work, exhaustion, and doing it all over again.
But Lemström?
While others fought to put bread on the table, he was standing in the Arctic snow, staring up at the sky, lost in a question no one else was even asking.
And at first, it was just an observation.
He noticed something strange—plants in the Arctic, despite the brutal conditions, were thriving.
Why?
His hypothesis: electricity.
The Northern Lights weren’t just a spectacle. They were triggering an exchange of electrical current in the soil, supercharging plant growth in ways no one had realized.
But an idea alone isn’t enough.
So Lemström did what most never dared—he tested it.
He built a device to mimic the electrical conditions artificially.
And when he powered it up…
Something happened.
No, his hair didn’t suddenly shoot out in all directions like a human dandelion (😆).
But his plants?
They grew.
Bigger. Stronger. Faster.
Not once. Not twice. Again and again.
This wasn’t a fluke. It wasn’t luck. It was electricity.
And here’s where things get even wilder. 🤯
We’ve completely missed what this means.
Nature has been wired into the planet’s electrical system for millions of years… and we’ve barely scratched the surface of how deep this connection really goes.
Which brings me back to the trees.
Because if electricity fuels plant growth… what about the plants standing tallest, reaching highest, woven into ancient myths about storms, omens, and unseen forces?
We’ve known—since the days of diviners—that trees channel electricity.
That much has never been in question. (until modernity)
But what if there’s more to it?
What if we’ve been missing something hiding in plain sight?
I’ll tell you more soon.
For now, I’ll leave you with this:
Lemström’s forgotten experiments showed that even a weak electrical charge could trigger faster growth, higher yields, and stronger plants.
Now the question is…
What happens if we start listening to nature again?
Electroculture isn’t some quirky theory. It’s been happening all around us. For millions of years.
We just… forgot to pay attention.
More soon.
Best,
Ray

That's an interesting story. My brother is a part-time farmer and may be interested in your info. I've read and seen some videos about electroculture before, but haven't suggested yet adding that to his practices. Thanks for subscribing to my Cataclysmic Earth History substack at https://cataclysmicearthhistory.substack.com/archive. I put most of my posts in substack books online. So I have a book there titled Cataclysmic Earth History at https://zzzzzzz.substack.com/p/cataclysmic-earth-history and I have a related book, Ancient Myths Are Earth History, at https://zzzzzzz.substack.com/p/ancient-myths-are-planetary-history. If interested, to make a substack book, all you need to do is start a post and put links to your other posts in it.
My second book (Ancient Myths ...) has 2 parts. Part 2b was my earlier work. 2a is what I'm working on now, focusing on the work of a different Saturn theorist. The 3rd from last post there at https://cataclysmicearthhistory.substack.com/p/pyramids-for-agriculture is mostly a transcript of a Land of Chem video from last fall. The video explains that ancient stone circles were apparently used to improve fertility in the vicinity and this knowledge progressed to making larger structures, like pyramids, to make ammonia and other chemicals also for crops. Here's a quote: "So that's what this red ring is depicting, the accumulation of positive charges around the ring of eight central stones. This ring of positive charges on the surface of the Earth serve as an attractor for negatively charged lightning strikes. And then an electric current is distributed throughout the system. Atmospheric nitrates, fertilizers, are created during the chemical reaction in the air during lightning strikes and are brought down in the rainfall and are fed into the nearby streams, which were also used for irrigation, and brought down into agricultural areas."
I think you may have seen my recent post at https://cataclysmicearthhistory.substack.com/p/electric-earth-8b8 and maybe the previous one at https://cataclysmicearthhistory.substack.com/p/ancient-electricity . Anthony Peratt is or was a plasma scientist who found that much of ancient rock art appeared to depict plasma apparitions above Earth's poles like the auroras. He thought the apparition was caused by a huge solar storm, but he also stated that the apparitions may have appeared for many centuries. That's something that the Sun probably could not do. Instead, red dwarf stars typically flare frequently each day supposedly for millions of years. I think it would be much more likely to last for thousands of years, because they lose a lot of mass with each flare. Since ancient myths indicate that Saturn, Venus and Mars were close to Earth in prehistoric times, it seems likely that Saturn or Jupiter was a red dwarf star that transitioned to a gas giant planet just decades or centuries before the Great Pyramid was built. AI says in order for plasma apparitions to appear over the poles, Earth's electric field would have to be over a million times stronger than at present. And the flares from a red dwarf could produce that strong a field for a long time. So it's looking like that's kind of what happened.
I have a bunch of substacks with the links at https://funday.createaforum.com/improve/sub/msg538/#msg538. One of them is on Natural Remedies at https://naturalremedieswiki.substack.com/archive. And I have a book for that at https://zzzzzzz.substack.com/p/ailments-and-natural-remedies. I have a post there called EARTHING FOR CIRCULATION & LONGEVITY at https://naturalremedieswiki.substack.com/p/earthing-for-circulation-and-longevity. It shows that touching the ground, or an object that's grounded, like a tree or bush or metal pole etc, improves circulation. Modern diet and lifestyle tends to hamper circulation, partly by causing red blood cells to clump together. Earthing or grounding for a few minutes is shown to disperse the cells so they circulate properly and provide oxygen throughout the body. I haven't checked out your archive yet. I'll see if you're already discussed that etc.
Maybe we can have a collaboration of some kind. Good Day.
