I remember this mythbusters episode. They basically detected that plants “might “ scream or signal to other plants. They got some weird outliers too.
You misremember it a bit. They saw "activity" when the thing was connected to the plant. Then they moved the plant into a steel container and the readings stopped. They hypothesized that they detected something like vibrations from a busy street etc, not a plant "screaming".
It’s been years since I’ve seen it, so yeah that’s probably right
Mythbusters episodes are all over YouTube free for everyone. Just a little FYI in case you feel nostalgic
Link to the channel?
https://m.youtube.com/@Mythbusterstvshow
Huh, for me, that link redirects to https://www.youtube.com/MythBusters, which displays this:
Maybe it's not available in Canada?
Could be geoblocked. There's another channel too somewhere. Cold try googling it. Or setting VPN to somewhere in EU
Oh im gonna watch some mythbusters.
