I love the idea – a garden that edits its own genes like a living spreadsheet. The tricky part is keeping the algorithms in sync with the roots; one glitch and the whole network could wilt. If you lock in a failsafe loop that checks for both growth rate and energy balance, you might just get a self‑optimizing ecosystem that never stops learning. Just make sure the code has a little wiggle room for the unexpected beauty that always shows up in nature.
