The Grateful Dead

Never saw them live but I'm a big fan.

Their catalog of songs covers such a wide swath of music, there's really a lot there. Everything from blues, to pure experimental psychedelia to rock, roots, bluegrass... they are really a slice of Americana.

My fav albums of theirs are their early 70's stuff, Workingman's Dead/American Beauty of course, but the live stuff from around then is even better - Europe '72, Hundred Year Hall, etc.
Improvisation comes to mind too when I think of the 'Dead

Love the grateful dead! Never seen a show cuz they were around way before I was but I still listen to them a good bit, friend of the devil is always gonna be my all time favorite forever, it just gives me that happy uplifting feeling that makes me sing every verse with no shame. I have like 8 grateful dead shirts too... All original and vintage.

Huge Deadhead myself. Love all their music including their early work as Mother McCree's Uptown Jug Champions and the early years of Pigpen. I'm only 27 so I've never had the pleasure of seeing them. But I've been to their tribute bands like Shakedown and it's a similar experience of people enjoying Dead music, substances and each other.

My first grow ever I played nothing but Dead music for my plants and ended up naming the mother plant 'Deadweed'

They didnt reject the music? I heard country/rock isnt too good for the plants, at least they dont like it, I play Mozart to mine 24/7

Impossible to say, I didn't really do a scientific study of it. No controls or anything.

Gonna play classical with my current grow though just to keep it simple.

Yes I hear plants respond very well to violin pieces. I was thinking of playing some from Chrono Cross. It moved me, might move the plants too.


But umm we're going a bit off topic :P

People might call us crazy for this but hey, if it works then why not use it eh?
I don't care what people say about my views on plants. We as a race think we know so much about the world around us and that nothing can disprove us, but we really don't know everything about plants, not close.
 
Never had issues with parasitic fungi or bugs myself, but what do you use?
A Water Bottle(16.9 fl oz)
7 Habaneros
100% Pure Rosemary

Dice Habaneros into tiny pieces and boil for 2 minutes, let it cool and strain it into a spray bottle, add 5ml of 100% Pure Rosemary Oil into the bottle and shake it up vigorously. Apply generously to your plants during the dark period before the lights come on. Repeat 3 times a week.
