Biodynamics
Dennis presents an experiment involving a spray made of crushed gems and fulvic acid applied to lettuce plants to encourage the formation of heads. The experiment compares the sprayed lettuces to the control group and evaluates the effectiveness of the gem spray in creating balanced and substantial lettuce heads. The results indicate that the gem…
Matias Baker – Biodynamic Consultant/Researcher Matias explores the alchemy and pictorial language of the biodynamic remedies and the significance of how they are woven into the cosmic yearly cycle. This leads into a further exploration of how the pictures coming to us out of biodynamics can support our search for soul healing and the renewal…
Stewart Lundy – Biodynamic Farmer & Researcher – perennialroots.com The sublimation of sexual energy, directed away from the outer world and to the ‘head’ is the process of a kundalini sublimation. This takes the alchemical ‘sulfur’ polarity and reunites it with the ‘salt’ polarity. It is the process of transmuting the basest materials into the…

With the launch of a spanish translation of his 2013 book, Sacred Agriculture, Dennis shares what motivates him to do biodynamic research, what the future holds for biodynamic research, and how the consciousness of the practitioner is important for biodynamics to bridge the gap to mainstream science.
Understanding the difference between “spreading” and “stemming” in plant growth patterns, is a doorway to the deeper mysteries of how hormones affect plant growth.
This pattern is used to describe a whole system of plant sprays that can be made from natural substances to influence plant growth from root to seed.
Includes *recipes* and experimental results!
Using the alchemical language of sulf, sal, mercury, Dennis describes how certain minerals and hormones that govern plant growth can be seen as growth patterns of deposition and dissolution.
Understanding of these patterns can be used to select what elements to include in a plant spray.
Recent research on the relationship between climate change and plant growth has revealed an unusual paradox. It seems that the more CO2 a plant has available in the atmosphere the larger it grows. However this growth is accompanied by a ubiquitous 8% reduction in potassium, calcium, iron, zinc, and plant protein in the cells of…
