3. Example of how music affect plants Ben, a 19-year old teenager was very fond of playing violin and was pretty good at it as well. Interestingly, he had a few houseplants in his room where he used to play his violin and he used to water them regularly. After a while he observed that those plants had grown better than the other plants in the house, even though the regular watering was same for all.
