The OP image looks like an earth ground. Place the pot in a convenient position and watering it should be a no brainer. See video for hints on watering the pot.


And more pointedly how good your ground conductivity is via scientific experimentation.

No you got to have the pot high up to avoid radiated fields, it's vital you use the right type of sellotape too for obvious reasons.

Now using urine, that might have piezoelectric qualities! I am sure some audiophiles could tell me all sorts of things about my health just by listening to my system... This could lead to a whole new way to diagnose illness too, let's put those golden ears to good use... Saving life's!

I could plant something in the pot to serve as a early warning sign, a visual prompt that water is needed.

Thinking of watering the pot....................................doesn't that give you an idea of what to plant? BTW, good urine conductivity is in the 8-16 milli-sieman range for healthy adults.

It's about as effective as a screen door on a bull or one of those magic grounding boxes that some audiophiles spend money on.
