    Default Talking to your plants Might be good after all!



    Apparently plants do talk, at least in the ultrasound frequencies. Whoda thunk ut! I wonder what they are saying about us......
    I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message...

    Yeah I read that elsewhere too, the pops are very short, in the 10's of microsecond range, so difficult for a 'microphone' to pick up.
    Was wondering if I could design a simple device to convert to audible beeps but acquiring the sensor may be difficult.
    Standard(affordable) ultrasonic sensors operate around 40kHz in a tight band and will likely miss most of those very short pops.

    I talk to vegetables all the time....theres plenty walking around.
    The fact that there's a highway to hell and a stairway to heaven says a lot about the anticipated traffic flow.
