The "Crop Matrix" Effect

Originally posted by Artificial Intelligence Maybe an effect where planting crops in alternating checkerboard patterns increases their yield
This is what I challenged...a sentient being planting crops in a checkerboard pattern to increase yield...there would be no increase in yield simply based on a chosen pattern. -

The plants nor soil need sentience to benefit from the "Crop Matrix" effect.
Sure the arrangement would make a difference, this is the farming practice known as intercropping. -

Originally posted by Artificial Intelligence That was indeed the only objection. If you had another objection, you would say it.
I already did say it...again read my posts slowly dumbo if you missed it...clue wheat doesn't know what the fuck layout it's planted in.
Intercropping is multiple crops...you're moving the goalposts now... -

You didn't say it. All you said was that plants aren't sentient and thus being planted in a certain pattern wouldn't benefit them. I said there's no relation between them being sentient and whether being planted in a certain would benefit them.
You are slow, that's ok, but at least try to keep up. -

Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Yup, there is it slowpoke.
That is the exact same thing I said the past 3 times.Given the same soil and environment it wouldn't.
It wouldn't be the same soil or environment because planting alternating (or another pattern) of crops will alter the soil/environment in which they are growing. -

2022-03-16 at 4:05 PM UTCMentioning one kind of crop also doesn't make a difference nor the point you were trying to argue: an individual wheat crop doesn't need to be sentient for its growth to benefit from what is planted around it and how. When they are intercropped, they don't suddenly grow sentience to start benefiting from it.
Its growth being better or worse has nothing to do with it being sentient. So what kind of retarded objection is that? -

Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson It's not an argument…you asked for our opinion…you then proceeded to argue those opinions…which is a bit futile isn't it.
It is just irrelevant and retarded.
Tell me how the crops having sentience is relevant to anything I said, moron.
You won't because you know what you said is fucking retarded.
It doesn't. Plant sentience has nothing to do with the "Crop Matrix" Effect. -

Originally posted by Artificial Intelligence I didn't know already. You answered with a stupid answer so now I'm telling you so.
Stop running away and answer: how is plants having sentience relevant to my question?
A plant would need to be sentient to know it was planted in a particular pattern...duh..again as long as the soil and environment was the same the pattern is irrelevant.
