cosmosist said:The allelopathic trait typically slows the growth of unfavorable plants surrounding the offender. Let's just say my neighbor and I don't get along, I grow sunflower along my back wall to slow his bean development way down, they still grow but slow and with it not being abundant if pests/diseases roll in he's done for the year.
Plants are electrically charged by the medium and work like walky-talkies. It's really cool, it's so cool scientists are pushing it more and more and wiring plants up like the internet to talk back and forth to eachother in a loop. You might be able to find the videos and write-ups online for it.
I'd be in a heck of a bind!
