Last year, towards the end of our gardening season we received an innovative product called Plantsurge which is essentially a group of magnets that connect to your hosepipe that magnetises your water. I did a lot of research and reading at the time, and magnetising water is a cheap and simple way to improve the state of water so that plants can absorb it better.
The terrific team at Plantsurge reached out to us again this year and sent us their new model which is partly made from recycled ocean plastic, and we’re super excited to try it out this season in our flower and vegetable garden.

So I mentioned how magnets restructure water molecules to help plants absorb water better, but the process also helps improve nutrient mobility in soil and enhances extraction and uptake of potassium, nitrogen, phosphorus and iron leading to healthier plants. Essentially, magnetically treated water increases the efficiency of fertilisers that are added to plants and vegetables, and gives your plants and vegetables an additional boost.
I have read countless studies on the subject, and it’s also been proven that magnetic water improves seed germination and we’re putting it to the test as we speak. Last week, we seeded all our vegetables, and we’re watering them exclusively with magnetised water from our Plantsurge. We’ll reveal the results in the coming weeks.
“I have read countless studies on the subject”, That’s good to know, but can you say where I can read them, cos this sounds implausible!
I’ll post some links later today. There are loads that have been conducted especially on commercial agricultural projects with mixed results.
Ah, yes, “mixed results” is what I’d expect from field trials! Generally that means that something else is affecting the outcome, not the thing that you’re testing. Have you seen anything from the lab that suggests a mechanism?
I can’t comment on the methodology of the studies. I’m intrigued to see how it works on our plants, vegetables and flowers. All our reviews are honest and based on our experiences, and we’ll provide updates throughout the spring and summer.
To get valid data you must have an experiment that has a control. In this case plants watered with magnetic water and identical plants in identical conditions watered with ordinary water. You can’t use magnetic water and say “These plants grew better than last year”? Or whatever.
Ideally you would have large numbers of plants grown, half watered with magic water ant the rest with ordinary water.
Thank you for your comments Malcolm. There are countless studies like this one (https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-45719-6) published by recognised sources that speak to the effectiveness of MW on plants, seedlings, etc. I’m not going to get into the structural science because that’s behind my level of personal knowledge, but I see no harm in this experiment. I do have a row of seeds in pots that I’m watering with non-MW as a comparison.
Oh, OK. That is an interesting article. It is *all* about saline water, so I don’t know if that’s relevant.
That’s just one of many Ian. Unfortunately I’ve discarded the PDFs and links, but there is a lot of literature to support magnetising water to increase plant strength and veg/fruit production. Here’s one I still had open in my browser: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/343953008_Effect_of_Magnetized_Water_on_Germination_and_Some_Growth_Characters_of_Broad_Bean_Vicia_Faba_L/fulltext/5f49ad9da6fdcc14c5de183a/Effect-of-Magnetized-Water-on-Germination-and-Some-Growth-Characters-of-Broad-Bean-Vicia-Faba-L.pdf?origin=publication_detail
Good evening Ian. We’ve published a literature review of magentised water and its effect on plants and vegetables, and there are a lot of very interesting studies if you’re still interested: https://myhomefarm.co.uk/magnetised-water-science-or-mumbo-jumbo
“Magnets restructure water molecules”. Water is H20 if I remember correctly there is an angle of 108 degrees between the two hydrogens and the Oxygen. To restructure anything needs energy. If magnets restructured water where does the energy come from? As the magnets last forever it seems that there is a magical continuous energy source. Energy can be transformed from one type to another, ending up as heat. For example using electricity in a power tool, it gets hot, the drill bit gets hot as work is done.
in your seed experiments have you a control ie. Seeds being watered with ordinary water, so you can compare them. Identical conditions for the two sets of seeds the only difference being the type of water?
you reports of heat pumps etc have been great. Don’t get sucked into this mystical mum o jumbo.
