Re: [nafex] Aligning the dominant root



As a physicist, when I'm in the laboratory I'm a scientist. But when I am in my garden, I sometimes feel that I'm more.

Does not sound to be believable or scientific.

Subject: [nafex] Aligning the dominant root

This growing tip was given me at a recent conference from an old-time South Carolina peach grower: Nursery stock when barerooted for planting exhibits a definite dominant (lateral) root. Supposedly this root grew in response to the magnetic field of the earth. Trees planted out in the orchard with this dominant root aligned towards the magnetic pole will assure the tree continues to grow in alignment with the sun the same way it did in the nursery. This fellow swore such planted trees took off far, far better. Makes sense to me. What do you all think?
