QEnergySpa, BEFE Egg Plant Life Span Extension

QEnergySpa/B.E.F.E. Egg Plant Longetivity Trial

Intro

Objective
To conduct a longevity experiment in order to show the effects of supplying additional Bio‑Energy to an Egg Plant. This will be done using the patented QEnergySpa, BEFE from Q the Experience.

Hypothesis
It is theorised that increasing the Bio-Energy content in an Egg Plant will have the effect of prolonging the life span (use by date).

Materials
1 x 4105 QEnergySpa, BEFE
2 x Egg Plant
1 x containers to charge water and fruit
2 x trays or plates (Dated & ID Charged , Uncharged)

Procedure
One Egg Plants will be placed into a container of water with an Orb connected to a 4105 QEnergySpa, BEFE and charged for a period of 35 minutes. After the charging session the Egg Plant will be placed on a plate.
The second Egg Plant will have no treatment.
No further treatment of the Egg Plant will occurred and as little handling as possible will be maintained.

The Egg Plants are to be photographed each day and have any observations recorded.

If possible the trials will be left long enough to harvest the seeds so they can be used to research the effect or changes to the next generation in a future trial.

Expectations
It is expected that the Egg Plant that has been charged with Bio-energy using a 4105 QEnergySpa will have a longer shelf life compared to the Egg Plant that has not been charged.

Trial

Trial commenced 19^th April 2004

Charging Egg Plant

20^th April 2004

21^st April 2004
The skin on the uncharged Egg Plant is beginning to wither

22^nd April 2004

23^rd April 2004
The uncharged Egg Plant is beginning to soften whilst the charged Egg Plant is still firm.

27^th April 2004
The uncharged Egg Plant is showing signs of deterioration; the surface of the fruit is withering and the Egg Plant is becoming visibly smaller. The charged fruit does not appear to have changed.

28^th April 2004

29^th April 2004

30^th April 2004

4^th May 2004
The uncharged Egg Plant has deteriorated further whilst the charged Egg Plant appears to remain the same

5 May 2004

6^th May 2004

7^th May 2004

11^th May 2004
The uncharged Egg Plant has deteriorated to the point that fungi has set in and the rate of decomposition is accelerating. The charged Egg Plant is still edible and is showing no signs of deterioration.

14^th May 2004

17^th May 2004
The charged Egg Plant is still firm but is showing slight signs of withering on the surface.

18^th May 2004

At the conclusion of the trial the charged Egg Plant was cut open and was found to be in very good condition. The photo above shows a brown colour on the flesh which began after the fruit was opened to the air.
Whilst cutting the charged fruit it was found to still be very firm and a moderate amount of moisture was present.The uncharged Egg Plant started to show the first signs of deterioration on the 27^th April 2004 and the charged Egg Plant remained viable for a further 21 days.The expectations of this experiment was to extend the longevity of an Egg Plant by providing it with extra bio-energy using a QEnergySpa, BEFE. From the photos above it appears it has been achieved.It should also be pointed out that no refrigeration or any other treatment was used on the Egg Plants over the duration of the experiment.Further experiments should be conducted to confirm the above preliminary findings. These experiments should be conducted in a controlled environment for consistency on both fruit in the experiment.

QEnergySpa, BEFE Pumpkin Trial

Meringandan Pumpkin Trial

Jap Pumpkin Trial

Jap Pumpkin Trial Log (Meringandan)

Day 1

The trial commenced on the 23^rd October 2003 at Freda Garret’s property at Meringandan in Queensland, Australia.

A fenced area was provided to conduct the trial. The preparation of the seed mounds required the ground to be dug and potting mix applied and mixed in with the soil of each mound.

Prior to the charging session a pH and conductivity test was done on the bore water.

Readings
pH	7.3	Conductivity	1.8mS/cm

8 Jap Pumpkin seeds were placed in a 10 litre container and covered with water.

A 3050 QEnergySpa, BEFE and Orb were used to charge the water for a period of 35 minutes on low setting due to the high conductivity of the bore water.

After the charging session the seed was planted into the mounds with 4 seeds per mound and planted at a depth of 40 mm. After planting, each mound was identified according to the type of water treatment it was to receive.

Each mound was watered with 20 litres of water according to its water rating.

Figure 2 – Four (4) mounds prepared for planting

Figure 5 – Planting out the trial. Latex gloves were worn to prevent contact with the seeds.

31^st October 2003

Trial pumpkins monitored and it was observed that seeds in the groups had emerged.

Only one seed had struck in the uncharged seed and charged water group.

Each group was watered according to its treatment.

Readings of pH 7.8 and Conductivity of 1.8 mS/cm were recorded after the water had been charged.

Comparing each of the pumpkins, the riper the pumpkin the darker the colour of the flesh and the higher the brix level.

(A)	Uncharged seed, Uncharged water	3
(B)	Charged seed, Uncharged water	5
(C)	Uncharged seed, Charged water	4
(C2)	Uncharged seed, Charged water	2
