^Very cool, and yeah- definitely mind boggling/expanding.
The question of if and how plants store memory from stimuli is totally wild, but then again so is the idea of a seed/spore/egg IMO!
I think, part of the trouble in truly relating to (and to some extents truly understanding) plants, fungi & animals comes from our default to anthropomorphising everything.
Personally, I find it useful/acceptable in the sense that it allows me to feel connection to the 'other' in an instant way but in the grand scheme of things it perhaps does more harm than good. Because it sort of depends on my selfishness to assume everything is more similar to me in function than dissimilar...
More value, perhaps, in adapting our ideas to their systems, rather than the other way around- if you can dig it.
To develop empathy leading to harmony for something so other without having to squeeze it into a 1:1 with our own functions or mechanisms could be a sort of intellectual 'hard step'.
What do you think about that, LogicaL? ('that' being the idea of evolving into some sort of union with the non human by a reevluating of our standards of comparison/study)
