is it gravity?

i was wondering when you plant a seed, how does the root know to go down into the soil no matter how u plant it. i guess what im asking is how do the roots know to go down and the stem to go up? is it cause of gravity?

its the sunlight

I am not sure science has proven whether it was the warmth of the light on the topsoil or if it was gravity that is the factor that makes the plant go where it should. Could be either, or Both.

okay...then if gravity plays a role then surely the moon plays a role also.. i mean tides are affected by the moon. maybe the perfect time to germinate would be when the tide is low or the other way round

i think its also how u position the seed, and i think its all chance, the seed chances it and guesses, and 99% of the time its right, but not ffor me

first seed i planted the fucking root popped up above the soil, and the seed was still UNDER the GROUND!!!

me not knowwing how plants work at all thought that it was right a little stem comes up and makes leaves.. yea no..

i saw it started to get dried out and brown and die i was like dam... this seed will die, i ten prceeded to cut the top of the root, and then I FUCKING REALIZED it goes the other way.. so i took it out flipped it over the right way, and in a few days it came up

then that night i left my window open and it was a freeze and the thing got frozen turned yellow and brown and shrivvled up, then it came back t life and its my only female atm and in flower doing hella good


lol wut tha fuk im sayin..

How does a baby know how to suck on a tittie?? It's just nature.
