In the good ol’ days, organic farmers used to keep a croton plant in their farms to find out the moisture level in plants. The drooping of the croton leaves used to be the sensor for indicating the moisture level in plants. And now, sensors & tweets for plants? Plants were networked aeons ago long before humans invented technology to create a networked society. Thank you for posting this video.
