I never thought I would be killing time reading the Oxford Annals of Botany, but I was curious of what effects conatant/continuous vibration may have on a plant. Come to find out, there's a term for a plants reaction to external perturbation, thigmomorphogenesis.
For the time being, my Elderberry is being grown indoors. Yeah, I know, blah blah blah. Anyways, it sits on a dresser in front of the window. Also sitting on this dresser is a box fan that I never shut off. So the Elderberry, for the entire time I have owned it, including all of its recent growth, has been subjected to perpetual vibration. So far, she seems not to mind...
Anyone have any experience with vibrations affecting their plant?
