Default Experiment finds that plants Die when placed next to wireless routers


An experiment in Denmark claims to
show that Wi-Fi signals are powerful
enough to kill cress seeds after
just 12 days of exposure


[The two Wi-Fi routers emitted
about the same type of radiation
as an ordinary mobile phone.
During the 12 days of the
experiment, many of the
seeds placed near the routers
turned brown and died.
‘This has sparked quite a lively
debate in Denmark regarding
the potential adverse health-effects
from mobile phones and
Wi-Fi -equipment,’ Kim Horsevad, biology teacher
at Hjallerup School told ABC News.]

Make sure your kids are not near WiFi.

I'm no botanist, but I think I've figured out a way to prevent this.

Surely, if the wireless signals are what are doing and not the router itself (Makes sense),
then there are gonna be very few places in the whole of the UK that aren't covered by some signal...
Think this is kinda bull****.

If you put a plant next to a fire for 12 days I'd imagine it'll be okay

Be alright next to a nuclear reactor too probably

I've got a massive Christmas cactus on a shelf above my router. It's been there at least three years. It's grown in that time and is currently covered in blooms.

Three years though, less than a meter from the router... and it's thrived.

Cacti are impervious to WiFi signals 'cos they are really Aliens in disguise waiting for the right moment to take over the Earth. Actually Radio Signals are their main source of sustenance.
