General Appearance
The plant is very thirsty and wilts easily in dry spells. (3)
Plants do grow fast, tall, thin and tend to stoop. fungi, general dryness, discolouration. (244)
Increased dry mass. (789)
The treatments Phosphorus 12CH, Phosphorus 48CH, ... presented resistance inducing action by slowing down [Sclerotinia sclerotiorum} progression up to 83% and decreasing the number of dead plants up to 90%. (1778)
Demanding plants, when not properly fertilized, respond to Phosphorus with growth identical to that of fertilized plants. Stimulates growth. (1837)
 
Roots
"The roots have shrivelled skins, feeling as though they are loose around the core of the root. Very dry; yellow with a brown core. The roots have a white sheath of fungal hyphae in or under the epidermis, which smells strongly of mushrooms. The woody part is either dry and powdery, or wet and jelly like. " (3)
The homeopathic preparation Phosphorus 3CH ... increased the root growth, in relation to controls. (1796)
... significant difference in plant length, bulb diameter and mass between the experimental and control groups. (1817)
 
Stem/trunk and bark - capillary system
 
Leaves
in cereals, the leaves turn purplish, legumes become bluish green and stunted. Most plants, however, turn dark green with red or purple tints. Oedematous spots in leaves, as in halo blight and stripe blight. Photosynthesis is impaired. Generally all diseases where the plants show watery cells and their concomitant problems. Leaves may brown around edges, or they may yellow and fall. Wilting and dieback are common. (3)
Impaired photosynthesis. thirsty. Shrivelled leaves, wilting in heat, brown or purple spots. (244)
Noticably lighter on leaves which turn yellow and dry. Burnt tips (337)
 
Flowers
The flowers are abundant. In excess phosphorus flowers come too early (3)
After an unusually long rainy season in Kilimanjaro, coffee plants on regional farms produced very few flowers, which meant the annual crop would be small. To make matters worse, a strong windstorm blew the meager showing of flowers off the plants! ... ... To treat the ailing coffee plants, I dissolved several pellets of Phosphorus 12c in a spray bottle... ... To everyone’s surprise, the coffee plants resumed flowering at full force within one week. There were so many flowers and, therefore, so many berries (1763)
I gave the cut flowers a few doses of Arn.6C and one dose of Phos.12C and they are still healthy after more than a month. They are healthy while wilting, or rather, the petals are browning and some parts of the gerbera are mouldy, but the overall impression is that they are hard and firm. Chrysanthemum flowers are long-lived by nature, and it's winter now, so I think it's a time when they tend to last longer than in summer, but I realised it had been a month. I'm a bit scared rather than happy (1787)
Kaviraj helped me with this, so Thanks Kaviraj If you're reading this post: I have a Brugmansia V. tree approx 10-12yrs old planted in the ground. These tree's normally bloom amazing trumpet like flowers several times per year. For some reason My brugmansia tree had NOT produced flowers for about a year. Kaviraj Suggested I use Phos. A few weeks went by and I see small buds growing, these buds will turn into flowers later. 100% success! Thanks Kaviraj (1839)
 
Generative organs
Poorly develop the stamen. Sterility is the result. The reproduction is sublime if Phos. is given at the right time. (3)
Sterility, stamen immature. (244)
 
Fruit
Fruits are big with tough skins, but a watery interior and little taste. Citrus may set a very healthy fruit crop in spring but collapses in the dry, hot summer. (3)
Tasteless fruit, spots on the fruit. (244)
Results of controlled trials demonstrated that the use of high-dynamized dilutions of Phosphorus ... positively influenced crop production, pest disease levels, and plant vigor in strawberry plants. (1795)
 
Seed
Abstract Plant models offer a method to examine the efficacy of homeopathic solutions. Homeopathic Phosphorus (P) dynamizations were evaluated on the linear growth and dry biomass of Verbena gratissima, a plant native to Brazil. The yields and chemical characterization of the essential oil are also given. Plants exhibited phenotypic plasticity after the homeopathic Phosphorus treatments. The dynamization 9CH, in particular, interfered with plant growth, height, diameter of stems and total dry mass. 9CH treatment showed the highest yield of essential oil. The essential oil composition of V. gratissima varied according to the different dynamization used. Homeopathic Phosphorus provided the greatest amount of beta-pinene, trans-pinocarveol, trans-pinocamphone and trans-pinocarvyl acetate in comparison with controls. (789)
Coumarin content of the plants was increased in the case of ... Phosphorus by 40.49%, ... when compared to the control material. (1700)
Phosphorus dynamizations alter the chemical composition and increase the productivity of essential oil in chamomile (1767)
the phosphorus 6cH showed differences between the groups treated, the germination occurred faster and regular, better than gibberellic acid. (1804)
 
Notes and Academic Papers
Phos. is an excellent remedy for the effects of lead poisoning, seen so often on road verges both in the city and in the country. Phos. profoundly affects the nutrition and function of every tissue, notably the hardest (cambium and bark) and the softest (flowers and fruits). It causes an increase in growth whilst continuous use later causes degeneration. (3)
Right, worse in temperature changes. (244)
Tonic.
Consequences of lightening, violent storms, cold, viruses and sunburn. (337)
The linked article shows that the remedy used was Phos 200c, Mycorrhizal inoculant 9x and early purple orchid essence. (1526)

The essential oil composition of V. gratissima varied according to the different dynamization used. Homeopathic Phosphorus provided the greatest amount of β-pinene, trans-pinocarveol, trans-pinocamphone and trans-pinocarvyl acetate in comparison with controls....

Through the regression equations adjusted were estimated increases in the P concentration (72%) and P accumulation (200%) in relation to the control by applications of homeopathy Phosphorus 30 CH. It can be concluded that linear increases in the P concentration and P accumulation in shoots of sorghum occurred by levels of dynamizations of homeopathy Phosphorus. (1715)
Although no statistical difference for variable number of sclerotia, some drugs such as Phosphorus 24 and 36CH and Calcarea carbonica 24CH, reduced this parameter up 45%, 37% and 32%, respectively, the number of sclerotia when compared to control water. (1720)
Dynamizations 24 and 30CH increased the fresh weight of shoots. Dynamizations 6, 24 and 30 CH increased total dry and fresh weight and dry mass of the root system. Phosphorus accumulation in sorghum root in relation to dynamizations were complex. However, the dynamization 12CH showed higher accumulation of phosphorus in relation to other homeopathic dinamizations, although, it had showed the lowest biomass accumulation. Thus, it is concluded that the dynamization of Phosphorus were generally more efficient at accumulating dry matter. It is suggested that, in general, the homeopathic medicine Phosphorus may have improved efficiency use of phosphorus because the same concentration of absorbed phosphorus the plants increased the total biomass. (1724)
Dry matter of shoot were not influenced by solutions, but proportion and content of phosphorus in plant tissues were increased by P6CH and P30CH. (1740)
In the development of analysis it was observed that in almost all parameters evaluated the medicine Carbo vegetabillis 6CH, followed by Calcarea carbonica 12CH, Silicea terra 12CH, Phosphorus 12CH, Pulsatilla nigricans 12CH and the preparation of Acai 12CH contributed to a better performance of the seedlings. (1757)
In vitro tests showed that the treatments Phosphorus 12CH, Phosphorus 48CH and Calcarea carbonica 48CH slowed down the mycelial growth. (1778)

"In 1994/95 a study in Germany showed that a sewage treatment plant which could, in regard to its phosphorus clearance, not perform according to the standards, improved its function and reached the prescribed standards through addition (to the sewage) of a homeopathic phosphorus preparation. The strongest influence was under phosphorus D30 and D200 (Schadlich 1995 and 1997) (77)
