Experiment 13: Kamut Sprouts

My name is Craig Morrin. I have been building meditation pyramids for over two decades now, and I have decided to embark upon the crazy and most dubious quest to do something that has never been done, ever before: to prove through scientific experiments that pyramid energy actually exists.

With temps falling below 50°F in my unheated workshop during this experiment, it has become clear that the weather is a changin'. And so, I had to switch from mung beans to something more cold tolerant. I also hot-glued myself a MythBusters pyramid to see how that might perform in comparison to the other pyramid I have been using. So I actually am now doing two simultaneous experiments in my workshop with two control samples each, resulting in a total of six individual cups that I soaked 10 kamut seeds each in one tablespoon of water:

I poured out the water 7 hours later and in separate cups with holes on the bottom, added one tablespoon each of dry sand and then placed the kamut seeds on top:

I then added 1/2 tablespoon of dry sand on top and then poured the water back on top of that:

I covered them with cotton cloth and then waited for a few days...and nothing happened. I then went to the 6th Annual Global Pyramid Conference in Chicago to speak and sell my wares, before returning on the 30th, ten days after this experiment first started and here is what they looked like on the left side of the workshop (nearer to the window):

And here they are with the cloth removed:

Not very exciting. And here is what the samples looked like on the right side of the workshop:

Even less exciting. The kamut has started to sprout in all six samples, but because it is colder, everything seems to be going much sllooooower. After another 10 days, things started to get growing. Here are the samples on the left side of the workshop:

And here are what the samples looked like on the right side of the workshop:

It had been about 20 days since I first started this experiment, so I ended it at this point. Here is a side-by-side comparison of samples from the left side of the workshop:

The Left Sample was closest to the window, and even though I blocked about 90% of the light there in order to try to balance the light from other sources on the other side of the workshop, it seems likely to me that because there is a clear linear progression of size, that the Left Sample got the most light, the Pyramid Sample the second most, and the Right Sample got the least amount of light.

And here is a side-by-side comparison of the samples on the right side of the workshop:

These were in a darker area of the workshop, and it seems to show, as the sprouts in these samples are even smaller. It also seems clear to me that there wasn't anything statistically significant between the pyramid samples and the control samples in this experiment.

If something isn't working in the way one hopes, that doesn't mean that you should throw in the towel. In my experiments, when things hadn't gone the way that I hoped they would, I changed the experiment. There could be a multitude of reasons why I didn't achieve significant results from them. I have so many things yet to experiment with: from how alignment might affect the pyramid energy, to the size and shape of a pyramid, to the nature of the experiment itself. With both my mung bean experiments and this one with the kamut, they all used dirt, which has all kinds of potentials to cause problems and throw off the results. I mean, it's just dirty...you know?

So I have devised another experiment where I will try sprouting alfalfa seed without having to use dirt. It's cleaner, and I should be able to cover them all from the light so that won't be a factor, as well. And I also should be able to more accurately measure the results using a scale that is accurate to somewhere around 1/100th of a gram. It could be that because of the relatively small size of these tabletop pyramids, they are not able to consistently produce noticeable results to the naked eye unless they are in their perfect, ideal alignment (which they may well not be). My hope is that by measuring the weight of the sprouts to 1/100th of a gram, I will be able to garner some more revealing information.

Stay tuned.

Edit: For greater simplicity, I switched which experiment I said was on the left side of the workshop, and which one was on the right.
