Is It Really Possible To Communicate With Plants? 🌺

in #powerofplants7 years ago (edited)

It seems that we all are deeply connected to the stunning colours, nature paints for us. I see so many beautiful posts with flowers and trees, especially for "Green Thursdays". 

I can never get enough to see this kind of beauty and my votes go out for most of those articles. 

 "Plants exist in a state of profound existence and peace in themselves" -  Bob Makransky

Studies revealed that plants may have the ability to talk to each other and respond to human conversations.

The concept of plants benefiting from human conversation can be traced back to 1848. German professor Gustav Fechner published a book called Nanna or Soul-life of Plants. His idea became popular and has inspired many researchers to take a closer look at the scientific evidence that plants can really respond to human conversation.- Source 

Can they feel us? What do you think? 

Plants might be smarter and much more interactive than we thought. We might not associate a term like "behaviour" with them but maybe plants do behave and lead sedentary and even solitary lives. 

You may not think of plants as particularly chatty or active organisms, but they’re not as passive as they might seem. Plants can’t run away, so they have to develop other strategies to stay alive, as James Cahill, an environmental plant ecologist at the University of Alberta, explains in “What Plants Talk About,” a documentary from the PBS show NATURE. They’ve evolved the use of chemicals to communicate with insects and each other in order to thrive. 

Here I found an article 5 ways plants communicate

Plants >>>>

- can call for help

- can eavesdrop

- can defend their territory 

- can recognize their siblings 

- can communicate with mammals 

The hidden power of plants 

I still keep dreaming that I could talk to flowers and animals. I would be so interested to know their secrets, especially how their medicines can heal our diseases. Just imagine for a minute if we would understand DMT- The Spirit Molecule much better. 

A study suggests that talking to plants could encourage them to grow.

So Prince Charles was right - you should talk to plants, scientists discover by David Derbyshire
Asked about his habits in the garden he replied: "I just come and talk to the plants, really - very important to talk to them, they respond."

Plants already have an armoury of senses to help protect them against predators, disease and the weather. All plants react to light, with sunflowers tracking the movement of the sun across the sky every day. Others 'feel' strong winds and stiffen themselves against buffeting. Maize reacts to the 'taste' of a particular caterpillar saliva by releasing a scent to attract a parasitic wasp. The wasp lays its eggs inside caterpillars, which hatch and destroy the host from within. Injured tomato plants can even 'talk' to other plants by releasing a chemical warning signal into the air. Any tomato plants in the vicinity respond to the signal by releasing their own chemicals to deter attackers or attract insect predators.- Source 

Once in Bali, I was told that I am a double fire personality, same as my mother, who only keeps dry flowers at her home. It might be the reason why they can't survive around us. Hmmm.....

I remember the sadness I felt as a child when the once, so stunning, colourful joy in our living room landed in the garbage can. I sneaked up to collect some leaves to keep the memories in-between the pages of some books.

I never liked those artificial decorations she bought instead, collecting too much unwanted dust and the energy always feels stuck with dead flowers around. 

Every time I wanted to beautify my city flats with blooming plants of the season, it usually didn't take that long and they would dry out. 

I ended up buying a lot of those tiny cactuses instead, the only ones who would survive my heated energy. 

My favourite well known coyote San Pedro Cactus, from the psychoactive species, would accept me for who I am:) and just recently I had the opportunity to experience the healing with mescaline. Read a brief history of this magical plant.

My Bali Houses were the perfect environment where I could truly enjoy touching them without them crumbling under my "hot blooded" energy. 

They grow so fast in a tropical climate and brought so much happiness to my daily life. Medicine to my soul. 

My buddies for a daily meditation.

Every morning I would collect uncountable flowers and fruits, falling off those trees. 

I miss that! 

I believe that its true that plants communicate through a secret language we only need to learn.

Flower of Life, a symbol of Sacred Geometry 

 


The Flower of Life is the modern name given to a geometrical figure composed of multiple evenly-spaced, overlapping circles, that are arranged so that they form a flower-like pattern with a sixfold symmetry like a hexagon. The center of each circle is on the circumference of six surrounding circles of the same diameter.

I was having a great feeling with my cherry tomatoes... till one day a snail or more than one... decided to eat the whole plant :( sadness

I spent weeks to see the plants growing from the seeds

@webdeals I feel you! the snails ate seriously hundreds of my little seeds.. I couldnt understand why? from my whole green garden they eat just a tiny baby canna leaf. Its not animal friendly but a little salt does the trick..

Thats so sad and make feel so bad

awwwwwww!!!! it's so hard, i cry when that happens

nothing we can do :( I was so sad but so pleased when I saw the plants growing

Oh dear Do I know that feeling 😜

that's horrendous :( my girlfriend was kidding me for days.... I don't know if was the snail eating the whole tiny plants or a cat :(

I think plants have been an equal or greater force in shaping my current perceptions of the world then people have had. There is no doubt they are alive, well, and intelligent in a way that is inherently different from us.

If anything, it's so exciting to see the anthropocentric trappings of hubris falling away from our faces, seeing that idea that out of the whole world, ONLY WE are intelligent. ONLY WE can communicate. How exciting is it to begin to understand that we are surrounded by intelligence, beauty, and awareness that is SOO different from us that we've been completely and utterly ignorant to it for a while (at least some of us, and quite a bit of us during the industrial revolution).

Thankyou Mammasitta!!!! Don't stop!!!

What a wonderful comment. I couldn't have found those words of my believes myself. That's exactly what I tried to provoke! This is the perfect answer!!!

awwwwww!!!!! thanks mammasitta!!! I can have 1 internet snuggle now?? :P

Hahaha, I can throw over a few cents if this can replace any snuggles and hugs

/PUUUURRRRRR!!!!!

MEOW!

Wow! I only had time to watch the first video (PBS - What Plants Talk About), but it seems that science is confirming the belief I have held for quite a number of years. All living things can communicate. The bacteria in our guts talk to our brains and animals talk to other animals without the use of words or telephones. We are all connected.

#floweroflife yes we are connected!

You have to see the DMT- The spirit molecule one

Strassman's book is fascinating, too, and it's available on Audible.

I will check it out . Thanks so much for the suggestion

I watched the DMT video instead of working on my next post which is a game that everyone is welcome to play (whales, dolphins, minnows and redfish). The video was very different than what I was expecting, however it does reinforce my personal belief that we are much more than a living lump of meat and bone.

Now I must go to sleep and I'll work on the game tomorrow.

I am glad that you watched it. We need to be open minded what governments don't want us to know. There is huge power/medicine in plants. I am not sure if you also read the previous stories( links) about this topic. I am looking forward to your next post. Good luck and I hope you got a nice sleep.

Having an open mind is the best way to learn! I only watched the 2 links on the page so far. I'm having difficulty keeping up; there is just so much I want and need to do that I cannot manage it all.

I got 7 hours sleep, so not bad. Will create my game post now. Thanks!

OK, will try to watch that too. So much really interesting stuff you post!

I feel great seeing your great posts..as usual. Steem on mama...with all that fiery energy!

My energy is floating away pffffff I just lost a new article due to a crash. I better go for a nice swim tomorrow 😜 Cool to see you again here

😂😂 you want to go cool down. Its great seeing you too ma'am🙋

What an interesting post! I can feel you because I used to have a small garden in my house when I was a kid. It was hard to explain as a kid then but I always felt so connected with plants and trees that I thought I can talk to them. " Mediation to soul" , as you said, where I found peace even though I just simply stood nearby looking at them .
Very nice photoes. I love your Bali garden

What a sweet comment. Thank you for telling your story. It feels good to connect with other "plantwhisperers".
I see you are new here and based on your comment I am sure you will tell many nice tales. So, I follow you and can't wait to read your articles. 🐬

Yes. My first comment on Steemit is for your post. Hehe. Thank you and look forward to your interesting articles :)

That's incredible! Many more to come. You deserve my nice gifts for you to get you started.
I will help a bit if I find a very special article of yours. 😇

Woa. Thanks a lot for your kind words. It encourages me to start soon 😊

Absolutely... It's when they start talking back you have to worry!!!

Hahaha Tell me about with Ayahuasca. Damn ! I got slapped left and right

yeah no kidding!

Definitely some of the most utterly terrifying moments of my life have been centered around having a plant talk to me =) and I wouldn't trade them for anything

Same same same ! Mother Earth connects 🙃

I think it's like when you pray... It's talking to God. When He talks back, it's schizophrenia!

Hmmmm ....I had some intense conversations

I promise not to tell anybody!

Hahaha like I would care if somebody knows 😝

Ooooooooh @mammasitta
you always have the best content.
What a great post in so many different ways.
You never allow us to leave without learning
something interesting and helpful.

Wow! Your words sooth my heart! I am so happy because that's exactly what I aim for. What a cool image! Thanks so much! 🦋

I love your story. I think that the plants can hear our voice. I also have small garden made by my father, I also take care plants with my father. I often observer flowers and swipper "you are beautiful".

love this post. I think it's amazing how plants can communicate with insects and each other though the use of chemicals, all in the spirit of survival.

Check this out

Nature’s superstars are animals like chimps or cheetahs. You think plants are just as amazing. Convince us.......
What can plants do that cheetahs can’t? They can regenerate when 90 percent of their bodies have been eaten away. They can have sex at long distances and communicate with approximately 20 more senses than an animal has. Those are very pragmatic arguments. But I think they’re valuable just because they’re there. We tend to judge plants not as autonomous organisms but in terms of what they can do for us. But they’re astonishing in their own right and deserve to be given the same ethical status as animals.

I agree plants are fantastic. But... I think it would be hard for people to give plans the same status as a creature they can see move and hear make sounds.
A bird chirping or a dog barking seems much more lively than a silent still plant.
And then their's the knowledge factor, not all people know the in's and out's of how plant life works and how amazing plants really are.

I agree but somehow I compare with introvert and extrovert humans. Some are loud and some are more quiet. Same with me the louder one, compared to my daughters more introvert personality. Both are unique and special.
It was really interesting to research this topic.

interesting.

call me crazy but I talk to my plants all the time... some even have names :)

I'm wondering if somebody does not talk to their plant? I do it constantly

I am too hot blooded for them and as I wrote they usually die on me. I might be too harsch or loud or who knows why. Too intense but in the tropics it worked so much better

Make that 2 lunatics hahaha
