Sentient Plant Brain Grows

PLANT NEUROBIOLOGY
Sentient Plant Brain Grows

by Humanoido

I started growing plant brains. Follow along in a series of blogs for all the DIY info.

When given the opportunity to access a hydroponics bay, the sentient plant immediately started growing new brain parts and sent those parts into the hydro wet nourishment abyss.

This resulted in over a handful of new existentialistic brain pathway stems forming a greater system network.

The plant began to send out brain shoots and has continued ever since the bay was available. This has resulted in more leaves, larger leaves, and a faster rate of growth. It's anticipated the plant brain will continue to grow, eventually amassing a much larger entangled web of thought pathways.

PLANTS HAVE BRAINS
Plants have a completely different anatomy from humans, therefore it's not surprising the plant brain can be found in their roots. The root system controls numerous and vital processes in the plant, even functioning as its “heart” by pumping water and nutrients across the whole plant. According to plant neurobiology, it is claimed that plants exhibit intelligent behavior, and that they possess internal control structures in many ways functionally similar to neuron-based control structures.

POTENTIAL PLANT BRAIN EXPERIMENTS
In this proposal for a future project, by Humanoido, a tap is generated into the plant brain using electrodynamic sensors and computerized real time microprocessor software to read the word states of the network and control structures. A system of brain thought language might be developed. Once the language is developed, a translator from plant language to English may be synthesized. This language would offer cross sectional spotlights of parametric communicative data commensurate with the plants spatial and time metabolics.

PLANT NEUROBIOLOGY
Plants are highly evolved multicellular creatures that must coordinate their behavior in responses to a wide variety of internal and external signals. One would expect that these creatures have evolved their own conductive devices for this purpose. In particular when the huge size of some plants is taken into account, the presence of long distance signaling seems to be essential and the functional need for a nervous system—or at least a neuroid system as described by Mackie—seems obvious.

PLANT TARGETS
The difference between plant neurobiology and other basic disciplines resides in the target of these interdisciplinary efforts. Plant neurobiology aims to achieve a scientific understanding of the integration of plant sensation and response. The target is the scientific understanding of how metabolism and growth can be regulated by the endogenous integration and processing of information. 

PLANT SIGNALING & THE ELECTROPHYSIOLOGICAL
Plant neurobiology stresses the integrated signaling and electrophysiological properties of plant networks of cells. As BalusĖ‡ka et al. (2006) point out: Each root apex is proposed to harbor brain-like units of the nervous system of plants. The number of root apices in the plant body is high, and all ‘‘brain units’’ are interconnected via vascular strands (plant neurons) with their polarly-transported auxin (plant neurotransmitter), to form a serial (parallel) neuronal system of
plants. (p. 28).
