Why Does Magnetism Affect Plant Growth?

While scientists believe that plant roots grow toward gravity and most stems grow toward light, there is speculation that strong magnetic fields have an even stronger effect, causing them to "pick up the pace," so to speak, in their growth rate.

Despite the fact that experiments with magnets and plant growth has been popular amongst the science fair contingency, the truth is that the study of magnetic fields on plant growth is still in its infancy.

No concrete conclusions have been drawn based on hypothesis and experimental results that put us any closer to knowing definitively why magnetic fields have an impact on plant growth.

Because magnets are irons, iron is a mineral, and the soil has minerals so the magnets help the soil become powerful!
