An Enclosed Plant Terrarium is a Renewable Source of an Aqueous f\ Form of Hybrid-Plasma

Abstract

Introduction: In previous reports we described a newly discovered non-thermal plasma formed without input of external energy. Moreover, this Hybrid- plasma consisted of the gas/water combination. In the present study we used the gaseous form to produce a mainly aqueous Hybrid-plasma. Methods: A dehumidifier was activated and placed in a sealed plastic container holding twelve broad leaf plants in which maximum levels of ion counts and humidity had been registered indicative of the presence of Hybrid-plasma gas. After 24 hours, the device was removed and 100-125 cc of water was collected. When the ion counts and humidity returned, to initial levels in the plant container the water extraction process was repeated (n=7). Protocol 1: Cut flowers of pink carnations were obtained from a local garden center. Two beakers were filled with either 150 cc of distilled water or dehumidified water. Branches with buds starting to flower were photographed daily for 10 days. Protocol 2: Distilled water, 150 cc was placed in snap cover plastic containers (n=5). Another set of 5 were similarly filled with the dehumidified water. Both sets were instrumented with hygrometers. Results: After dehumidifying, the percent changes of the ion count and humidity values from starting levels averaged 36% and 41%, in the enclosed plant terrarium respectively. After 24 hours the ion count was restored to maximum levels and humidity registered close to 90% after 7 iterations. After 10 days the bud in tap water had blossomed into a full grown flower, buds in Hybrid-water was essentially the same as at the start of the study. After 24hours humidity in all plastic containers with dehumidified water registered 99% whereas the humidity in the distilled water containers ranged from 89-92%. Conclusions: The aqueous form of Hybrid-plasma can be extracted from a gaseous form by using a dehumidifier. Flower buds grown in Hybrid-water fail to bloom whereas those in tap water blossomed over the same time period. Placed in a sealed container, Hybrid water uniformly registered maximum levels (99%, n=7); Distilled water values ranged from 89-92%.
