We now know that plants communicate through the air, root systems, and mycelial networks. Now I get what indigenous cultures meant when they said that the forest is alive. Not just the plants and animals but its actually operating as a mass of symbiotic organisms. We used to fit into that puzzle much better. I bet animals also communicate on a level that we can't even imagine.

I've worked in the forestry industry and when we had to remove certain invasive plants, the other plants of the same types near by would begin to drop seeds when we started cutting them down so we had to be quick and have multiple people at certain times of the year. So i can definitely confirm that plants talk.

Most people suffer and die without ever having anything positive in their short lives. I guess God has his way huh. You must be special compared to everyone in 3rd world countries. So self centered. The world suffers while the ones doing good believe it's all for a purpose. I promise you the people in Gaza aren't happy and think God is doing this for a reason. Then there's the fact that religion was forced onto other communities where they didn't believe and were brainwashed. Every colonized country went through this.

I talk to my trees and plants. We had two oaks professionally planted in Oct and the biggest wasnt 'waking up' after winter. I was worried she was dying. Some trees just dont take no matter how well you care for them. I swear i was out there every day telling her it was time to wake up and I needed her to hurry because once April comes we have to get her replaced before the summer heat. Well she did. Took her just a couple days and she budded and started popping leaves. She looks great. I made sure to give her and her sister both a nice shot of tree fertilizer to help them get ready for the summer.

@peopleeps4756 15 дней назад

I know this is just a joke, but there are other ways a plant can get ready! They can start making defense chemicals earlier, or begin shutting down certain organs to prioritize others. They can begin to shift the transport of nutrients to their storage mechanisms (like potato tubers or carrot roots) so if they do get entirely eaten they can regrow from the root. They can also begin to drop seeds early, which improves the chance that their dna can continue through their offspring even if they do end up dying

Wait till you hear about Boquila trifoliolata, this plant is a vine that copies the leaf shape and arrangement of whatever its growing on for camouflage. Someone did an experiment where they had the species grow on fake plastic plants, and they STILL could copy the shape correctly. This means they arent sampling the dna of the host and importing it into their dna in horizontal gene transfer, but that they actually may have the ability to see!

Plants are different in many ways from animals, but not as different as most people presume that they are. We have been looking at plants from an animal centric perspective, cutting down trees and other plants without any sense of guilt associated with killing living things. We need to appreaciate them better as we have come to do so for other species of animals.

In a BBC documentary (Mysteries of Nature) this was already seen and reported in Acacia (?) trees in Africa. When their leaves get eaten by a giraffe, they produce a chemical that makes the leaves taste bitter. Giraffe has 15 minutes before the leaves are inedible. Trees in the neighborhood receive the signal and also start making their leaves bitter. Giraffe has to walk a few miles to the next tree that tastes good, out of reach of the chemical signals of the other trees.

My tiny brain cannot comprehend on how did they decided to evolve/adapt to do that? Do they even make decision? "Hmm, thorns are no longer effective, let's try something else."

@IndianArma 4 месяца назад

@vanadot all evolution is thousands and millions of random mutations, selected for the ones that are actually helpful. So in this case, one random mutation that led to this adaptation becomes more survivable than its peers, over successive generations it replaces the less well adapted members of its species through a greater survival rate of its offspring and therefore reproduction rate than the ones that don't have the same adaptation. Why do random mutations occur? Because DNA, which us digital in nature, is prone to error in replication like all digital signals.

@IndianArma 4 месяца назад

@@ghoulbuster1 are you replying to me and referring to me in the third person? I just explained how adaptation is driven by selection, that determines which mutations stick, mutations per se, depending on the type of mutations have a number of discrete and indiscrete factors, quantum tunneling, molecular ionization, independent DNA sub functions, all contribute to the error in signal propagation that we call a 'mutation', casually speaking this has very little to do with the environment, in the way we think, it's environmental selection that does however determine which mutations confer advantages and/or disadvantages, what's so difficult about this?

Plants have also been observed "donating" resources to other plants. And what is wilder, these plants seem to recongnize their own offspring and focus on sending resources to them! Perhaps the warning that a plant gives off is a request for help as much as it is a warning. Basically a "hey man, I'm in a bind, you think you could send some help over?". Who knows how in depth their communication is, and how exciting! A whole other world is operating underneath us and we have yet to even scratch the surface!

They have also known that Redwood trees will communicate to each other when there is a fire. They can detect, spread pheromones or something in the air, the other trees can recognize this, and they produce some kind of "sap" or something, inside the trees, to help protect them, a bit, from the fire. And this is why they developed such a stronghold in the places they grow, they out survived their competitors over time. I'd say the exact same is true for these plants. They have near rudimentary nervous systems and that would give them an advantage over other plants.

I was an apple/pear picker for 2 decades and once was told by a farmer that he'd made up his mind one year to 'grub up' (ie cut down) a particular block of pear trees that weren't producing much year on year. He made up his mind one day walking around the block and was therefore surprised that year to have a bumper crop, which convinced him not to cut them down. I always felt on a deeply subjective level that old pear trees had almost a personality. Often it was a battle to take the pears, I'd be jabbed in the eye, have branches whip back on me, cuts all up my arms. Somewhat odd because I always felt we were doing the tree a favour by picking its fruit.

@MrMartinSchou 4 месяца назад

> somehow we think we could communicate with or understand alien languages That's because in this scenario there would be an intent to make oneself easily understood on both sides. If you take two people from completely disparate cultures and languages and put them together in a room, they'd pretty much always want to figure out how to communicate. But - if you take a random person and dump them in a country with a completely disparate culture and language, they're often going to be the only one who wants to put in any effort to communicate, because everyone else is busy trying to work, shop, commute etc. Same with animals - what is the incentive for animals to communicate with us? Usually it's to be fed, and they've nailed that. We might not understand the exact message, but "feed me" is easy enough to understand, as it "if you don't let me outside now, I will end up shitting on your carpet".

"...the work being pioneered by Buchmann and his contemporaries could force an ethical reckoning with how the animals are treated. Commercially managed bees are considered livestock by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), and are treated as a workhorse for food production, just as cattle in feedlots serve the beef industry. This mechanized approach to pollination makes no allowances for the kinds of revelations about bees’ emotional lives that scientists like Buchmann have recently discovered. “Bees are self-aware, they’re sentient, and they possibly have a primitive form of consciousness,” writes Buchmann. “They solve problems and can think. Bees may even have a primitive form of subjective experiences.” Evidence supporting insect sentience offers clues to what may be driving “colony collapse disorder”, in which entire honeybee hives die within a single season - a phenomenon that has caused the population of these essential pollinators to precipitously drop over the last two decades. While the cause has been primarily attributed to pesticide use, Buchmann and other scientists argue the decline is also due to psychological stress caused by the brutal practices of industrialized agriculture."

I’m also a forester and trees are complex. Some trees are highly competitive with other species and will do whatever is possible to kill others, like black walnut producing and secreting toxins into the soil that kills other vegetation or jack pines that incite stand replacing fires. “Communication” between individuals may be anthropomorphizing it a little too much, but trees are very inter-connected and some rely on each other. But I think many who are not aware of the deep nuances of trees don’t understand who tree species are all incredibly unique just like animals.

Is this the book that talks about how commercial forestry is based on the kinda capitalist idea that cutting down old trees and growing young ones in their place kinda flies in the face of how forests work together.

My goats browse clearings, roadsides and wander through the forest like deer. They usually browse on something then move on without killing it, unless they are hungry and not finding enough, when they might eat too much of one plant or its bark. In winter in Vermont, with snow cover, they eat a lot of Hemlock needles and nibble on tree bark. They seem to detect a signal that a sapling or branch, or a patch of saplings, has had enough and move on. They get more excited about reaching older hemlock branch tips than saplings, such as mature high branches bent down by the snow (or by me, if the little one can't reach anything!) They don't eat much of any one branch, UNLESS it is already broken, maybe snapped off or cracked by the wind. Then they methodically eat almost all the branchlets, seeming to detect that this branch is dying already.

Plants don’t just communicate with other plants, but also with a complex ecosystem of microorganisms that live around, on top and even inside of the plant. I’m actually working on a project for my Master’s thesis that aims to decode the meaning/ function of a molecule that is secreted by a fungus, which grows into/ colonizes the roots of diverse plant species and can have beneficial effects on their growth, nutrient acquisition and can even protect its plant host from pathogens. The chemical signals that plants and their microbiome exchange is mind-bogglingly complex and still very poorly understood. In a similar way in which plants communicate with their microbiome, we humans communicate with the microbiome living in our guts or on the surface of our skin. It’s really quite fascinating. Everything is communicating, we just haven’t been very aware of it.

I recently saw a paper demonstrating that mimosas (the "sensitive plants" that fold up leaves to dump insects off) can habituate to novel stimuli, and the habituation lasted at least a month after 'training' has stopped. That's the simplest form of learning. Any consciousness that plants might have would be virtually nothing like that of animals. But it's fascinating that our assumption that it doesn't exist might be wrong. Also, *we* rarely communicate consciously with our microbiome-after all, we didn't realize that we could, so didn't try to chemically give it 'orders'-so it wouldn't be unreasonable for even a sentient plant to not be consciously communicating with its own microbiome, but to chemically do so nonetheless.

Recently a common household mold was discovered to produce VOCs that make plants grow MUCH faster. Just a short exposure to this smell (even through a HEPA filter) early in a plant's life will cause it to grow faster and bigger for it's entire life.

If it was a volatile compound it would be gaseous so a filter wouldn’t stop it, but either way is that some evolved exploitation of the plant where the mold gets it to grow faster so that it can have a bigger plant to parasitize so it can also grow faster. Fascinating

i recently read The Hidden Life of Trees by Peter Wohlleben. this joyful book and his other writing covers how plants are way more sentient than we give them credit for, all because they live on a different timeline than us! he does this in such a lovely whimsical way. they live for hundreds sometimes thousands of years, so they communicate with electrical signals that travel at the speed of a third of an inch a second. they produce chemicals that reduce pain, implying they experience such things and the tips of their roots contain cells that behave like our brain cells. it’s all very fascinating and i have slipped right down this rabbit hole about trees and ancient forests! if you’re curious about the topic i highly recommend peters work.

Not many people realize light becomes liquid when at Absolute Zero -273.15 degrees Celsius, or -459.67 Fahrenheit. What will be even stranger is when we understand that Absolute Zero is Relative to its native conditions. 'Liquid' light shows social behavior. But keep in mind G. K. Chesterton’s words when he said that only the truth can be exaggerated because nothing else can stand so strong - nothing else can stand the strain. And perhaps that is why Chesterton says that the test of good religion is whether you can joke about it. “Angels can fly because they can take themselves lightly. -- G. K. Chesterton This has been always the instinct of Christendom, and especially the instinct of Christian art. Yet I am puzzled that Ezekiel 28:13 specifically states, “You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every stone of great worth covered you: ruby, topaz, diamond, beryl, onyx, jasper, chrysolite, turquoise, and emerald. And you had beautiful objects of gold. They were made for you when you were made.” I wonder what the psuedogravity of these distorted crystals would reveal if they were arranged properly, according to the Lord’s Will?
