Interesting Plant Fact

Updated: Nov 21, 2021



Communication among plants has been shown through scientific studies. Through the release of phytochemicals, plants are able to relay their consciousness by altering themselves, their environments, and by influencing their allies as well as predators. Phytochemistry in plants are what allows them to have medicinal, toxic, or hallucinogenic effects. It is theorized that through an auditory hallucinogenic effect, an apprentice would interpret and codify plant sounds, enforcing the idea that plants are "sonic beings".1
