Review: What a Plant Knows | Audubon Magazine

I could not refrain from commenting. Very well written!

Electricity also affects plants!

I'd like to also add that for over 200 years it has been known that plants respond very favorably to various forms of electricity too!

A wide array of benefits can be achieved when plants and their surrounding soils are electrified including:
- Increased yield of fruits or vegetables
- Increased size and sweetness of fruits
- Resistance and curing of disease
- Accelerated growth
- and lots more!

Furthermore, regarding the notion that plant's cannot feel - If I remember correctly, Cleve Backster who was mentioned in the book, "The Secret Life of Plants", performed experiments showing that plants experience and 'scream' in the face of pain from burning or bruising.
