Mushroom Are Talking

Talking Mushroom

Did you know that mushrooms can communicate with each other? You don’t have to eat one to hallucinate that they are talking to you.

In the Royal Society of Open Science, Professor Andrew Adamatzky at the University of West England (UWE) shocked the mushroom with an electric current, and the first words that came out were:

“You shocked me,” said the mushroom.

No, not really.

I would be tripping too.

Stay away from the mushroom!

Adamatzky says that mushroom-like living things have a nervous system, as do oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus.) They emit a small dose of electric current with a high and low frequency. Ganoderma resinaceum emits electric signals at intervals of up to 8 eight minutes.

So don’t go charging your devices to plants. Some of these electric plants don’t last too long. Carry a charger.

According to Adamatzky, the electric signals of mushrooms are similar to creating a central nervous system.

And did you know they can speak up to 50 words, so don’t use foul language in front of the mushroom? And they can be very talkative. They only know 50 words.

How they talk is the electric current flashing and glowing inside the mushroom. And they can only speak Russian. And English too. And they can howl like coyotes — maybe for danger?

I am not making this up.

However, can mushrooms determine if there’s danger nearby when a person picks them up? No, not really, if they move on their own, either if the person is ingesting it or hallucinating.

By the way, this was amusing to read and research.
