You probably don't think about plant roots all that much—they're hidden underground after all. Yet they're continually changing the shape of the world. This process happens in your garden, where plants use invisible mechanisms for their never-ending growth.

    How rude. I’m sure the (checks notes) dozen or so of us think about them plenty.

    Past that, I wonder if these oscillations are related to plants’ uptake and release of fungal and bacterial cells or if they’re an entirely separate function.
