Electrical current and it's effect om mycelium growth

I was wanting to experiment with very subtle amounts of electricity to see if it was possible to speed up colonization. some forms of Bactria thrive when introduced in a charged area, (the leads in an electric toothbrush charger, where it is wet and charged.)
Mycelium and spores are not bacteria but the fires of life are stoked by bio-electricity. Regardless I plan on looking into this, I will be most interested to hear anyones thoughts on the subject.

I've seen mini electrolysis kits at thrift shops for a buck. I might get one and test it out.

maybe if you posted this in the Advanced Myc forum you'd get some answers.
I have no idea if it would work, but that is a fantastically interesting idea!

I actually posted it in both places DrOmni. I spend most of my time here in this forum and I wanted to share a theory with the people I talk to more often. Plus the new folks seem to be very interested in speeding up colonization any way they can.

It might be possible to rig something up using electrophoresis and agar. That would be really cool!
