Plants??????
if you even had a slight clue about gardening you would know harvesting encourages new fruit growth as picking flowers makes more flowers
Reply:Why don't you take a look at the answers to this question the last 149 times it was asked. Man people don't bother to read the questions in the suggestion box do they.
Reply:All I know is that I have heard animals cry.





Have yet to find a corn plant that will do the same.
Reply:Yes they do release chemicals when damaged, but it's a response for repair, not a conscious learning process to steer from danger. Like this... if you raise your hand to a dog and then smack it on several different occasions... pretty soon if you raise your hand to the same dog without smacking it.... it still cowers. It has learned consciously. if you smack a plant a thousant times... it never makes a designation.
Reply:Plants do not have a brain or a nervous system, so they do not feel pain.
