tl;dr: plants communicated they were under attack by aphids to other plants via their mycorrhizal network and those other plants responded.

So I am waiting for some gibberellic acid and jasmine essential oil (for the methyl jasmonate), and have been considering how I want to go about administering these, especially considering the fact I have 3 plants per 10 gallon tub I'm using, and now this article. It's all so interesting!

Companion planting has worked for thousands of years now we know sometimes its the fungi who make it work, not us.
