One of the historical techniques Dudgeon explored was the use of elevated masts and wires to collect atmospheric electricity and distribute it into the soil, mimicking the stimulating effects of lightning.
He also detailed the use of induction coils and spark gaps to discharge electricity through overhead wires, creating an "electrical manure" effect for entire garden plots. DUDGEON : Electroculture
Dudgeon's guide focuses on the practical application of electrical energy in gardening and farming. He argued that plants are naturally responsive to electrical stimuli, which can be optimized to improve their metabolic processes. One of the historical techniques Dudgeon explored was
