Cool study. Not too surprising though given how much time plants have had to optimize growth.

Kind of similarly, you don't need to swallow high energy drinks to get the performance benefits.

The amount of things that plants can sense without a brain or nervous system is incredible.

A lot of people talk to their plants. I never judge them.
