Fellow #PlantLovers / #GardeningAddicts - do you play music for your plants? If so, what kind of music do you play for your plants?

I play lots of classical, jazz & oldies surf rock for my plants. I talk to my plants, daily - mostly giving them love, encouragement & complimenting them. I've always believed that plants can hear words/instrumental music & it doesn't hurt to speak to them, in kind & loving ways & to play some instrumental tunes for them.

"From personal experience, choosing the right variety and soil type can make or break your harvest. I’ve found that late April to early May, depending on your zone, hits the sweet spot. If you’re in Zone 4, aim for around April 30, while Zone 5 growers can plant around April 15. The soil warms up nicely by then, making it ideal for planting."
