+---**Pfeiffer** had developed in his
+native Switzerland a "**sensitivity crystallization method"** to test finer
+dynamic forces and qualities in plants, animals, and humans than had
+thus far been detectable in laboratories. Dr. Steiner asked Pfeiffer to find a reagent which would reveal"etheric formative forces" in living matter. After months of tests with Glauber's salt, or sodium sulfate, and many other chemicals,
+Pfeiffer discovered that if a solution of copper chloride to which extracts
+of living matter had been added was allowed to evaporate slowly over,
+fourteen to seventeen hours it would produce a **crystallization pattern
+determined not only by the nature but by the quality of the plant** from
+which the extract was taken. Pfeiffer developed an even simpler and less time
+consuming method to demonstrate how life veritably pulsates from
+living soils, plants, and foods, but not from inorganic minerals, chemicals, and synthetic vitamins, which are dead. Requiring none of the
+complex equipment of the standard chemical laboratory, it uses circular
+filter-paper discs fifteen centimeters in diameter, provided with a small
+hole in the center for insertion of a wick. The discs are laid in open petri
+dishes in which stand small crucibles containing a 0,05 silver-nitrate
+solution. This solution climbs up through the wick and spreads over the
+discs until it has expanded about four centimeters from the center.
+From the brilliant-colored concentric patterns Pfeiffer has been able to disclose new secrets of life.
+Pfeiffer laboratory has series of beautiful crystallizations, looking like exotic undersea corals. A strong,
+vigorous plant produces a beautiful, harmonious, and clearly formed
+crystal arrangement radiating through to the outer edge. The same
+crystallization made from a weak or sick plant results in an uneven
+picture showing thickening or incrustation.pg 244

+---Pfeiffer came to realize that it is only our human egotistical point of
+view that labels a weed a weed, and that if they were viewed as a
+functioning part of nature, weeds would have much to teach. Pfeiffer
+proved that a whole group of weeds, including sorrels, docks, and
+horsetails, are sure indicators that the soil is becoming too acidic. Dande-
+lions, which lawn owners so feverishly dig up; actually heal the soil by
+transporting minerals, especially calcium, upward from deep layers, even
+from underneath hardpan. The dandelion is thus warning the lawn
+owner that something is wrong with the life of his soil. Pfeiffer came to the conclusion that,
+when soil lacks lime, silicon-loving plants such as daisies move onto it.
+When they die, they bring to the soil the missing calcium.  pg 264

+beans and cucumbers, for instance

+---The New Alchemists say: "To Restore
+the Lands, Protect the Seas, and Inform the Earth's Stewards." This is
+what the planet's vegetal covering on terra firma has been doing since
+long before the advent of man to his stewardship. In that sense, **//plants
+are the oldest alchemists.//**

+powerful energies are at work in the germination process of seeds which
+synthesize enzymes, probably by transmuting matter within them. His
+experiments have also convinced him that **lunar forces are extremely
+important in germination**, though botanists have long asserted that only
+warmth and water are required.
