our 8 year old has started learning to play the trumpet, ive managed to convince him that a daily hours practice in the veg garden will make them grow better
will this harm the plants or actually encourage them?

I've always believed that loud music stimulates growth; they did a thing about this on GW a few years ago. May just be another myth though. I often leave the radio on in my greenhouse, but it is primarily to keep the squirrels out.

Certainly movement of air or brushing lightly makes for sturdier growth. Perhaps a blast of Trumpet Voluntary would get the air moving.Not sure about variations on Carnival of Venice.

Maybe the plants will be o.k,but it might start a fued with the neighboughs
ask your lad to stand in some compost while he's playing...maybe he'll grow as well
