This was a great post, man! The possibility of plant intelligence has been an interest of mine since I was a child, and with it, a collective earth hive-mind wouldn't be too far off.

After so many years evolving, wouldn't it be possible? That said, the level of complexity is unpredictable. Perhaps, it would even be incomprehensible to us humans. A way of perceiving and thinking as different to ours as fungi is to flesh.

I've yet to try psychedelic mushrooms, but the idea that it might be a way of communicating is interesting to the extreme. It gets my writer fluids flowing, ha!

Steem on!
