The Secret Language of Grass

You might have noticed that when grass is cut, it releases a distinct smell to let others know it's been harmed. This scent is created by certain chemicals such as esters and aldehydes that the grass produces. These chemicals are what give the air that fresh, pleasant smell after mowing the lawn. It's like a natural alarm for the grass, signaling that it's been damaged. This process is part of how plants communicate with their environment, using scents to convey messages and reactions to various situations, including stress or injury.
