Daft_ishHow likely do you think it is that there may have been a person in a the last 2000 years who solved one of life's great mysteries but never reported/recorded it?
Well just in case this ends up being a solution to some mystery I’ve not come across, here’s a genuine (albeit seemingly pointless) finding from a research project I did a while back:
When saltwater is poured into the soil around the roots of a tomato plant, the plant’s internal electrochemical response oscillates with a 0.1hz frequency.
I’m not sure what mystery that will solve but now nobody can accuse me of not reporting/recording it!
So this is related to hydration in the plants. I read this paper about tomato plants being stressed and emitting ultrasonic chirps
So glad I can’t hear my poor potplants.
They said “Whaaat?”
