This research compares the electromagnetic radiation (EMR) from indoor plants during the daytime and nighttime using a frequency detector. The indoor plants involved are Dracaena Trifasciata (Snake Plant) and Epipremnum Aureum (Money Plant). Electromagnetic radiation (EMR) is the frequency (Hz) radiated by a living body and can be measured using a frequency detector. This preliminary investigation uses a handheld seven-segment monopole frequency detector to compare the EMR pattern with and without indoor plants during daytime and nighttime. The results show that the average EMR values for both plants and both time intervals increased during the presence of plants and returned to slightly lower than the normal EMR reading when the plants were removed.
