(Explanation of the phenomenon and commentary)
It is known that the bodies of plants and animals consist of 80–90% water, and water:
- performs a transport function by “delivering” nutrients to tissues and organs during root and foliar feeding, metabolic processes, and synthesis;
- serves as a thermoregulator, preventing tissue overheating and denaturation (destruction) of proteins, including enzymes and hormones;
- creates turgor — the elasticity of tissues;
- supplies hydrogen (H), which plants need for the photosynthesis of primary sugars.
Therefore, the condition and properties of water — in other words, its energy-informational structure — play a significant role, including in the intensity of plant growth.
The familiar chemical formula of water, H₂O, corresponds only to its vapor state. In liquid form, water molecules are bound by hydrogen bonds into groups denoted as (H₂O)x, where x is the number of molecules.
When exposed to hydrodynamic or ultrasonic cavitation, intermolecular bonds are broken, forming new groups of water clusters with favorable ion-hydrogen bonds. In this process, unstructured and dissolved metal ions in the water acquire a new biogenic configuration, making complex microelements more bioavailable and easily absorbed by plants.
Mass spectrometric analysis of water after cavitation treatment recorded an increase in the concentration of biogenic microelements such as zinc, copper, iron, and tin.
- Iron plays a key role in chlorophyll formation, being part of the enzymes involved in the synthesis of green pigment; it regulates oxidation and reduction processes of complex organic compounds and is part of respiratory enzymes. A deficiency of iron inhibits the synthesis of growth substances and causes leaf discoloration from light yellow to almost white.
- Zinc is a component of enzymes and chloroplasts; it positively affects photosynthesis, protein metabolism, and the production of growth stimulants.
- Copper is part of enzymes that activate carbohydrate and protein metabolism. Signs of copper deficiency include leaf chlorosis, wilting, and premature leaf fall. Severe deficiency inhibits growth and disrupts the formation of fruit-bearing organs.
By absorbing these substances, the plant creates in its tissues the necessary concentration of elements, leading to faster growth, greater disease resistance, and the activation of powerful root growth stimulants — heteroauxins, which promote accelerated root formation.
