What if i bury myself alive until the tree sprouts? Get some breathing tubes and such.

Clone tree

Though as the tree's "seed", you would have to remain there forever to keep giving it life

Hex, is it immoral to become your own omelas? Asking for a friend.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago

Becoming Omelas (a body that lives in the dirt forever) so that you can destroy Omelas (The United States) is moral, because eventually you will achieve world communism and will be able to free the dirtbody.

is the speedy tree growth a property of the soil, location, or of whatever we plant in there? if i plant a fruit do i get a tree that gives out instant growth seed versions of that fruit?

because if so i'd like to patent 1 day growth date seeds.
