is it true trees use it to communicate and even "think"? sounds dope as fuck tbh.

I'm sceptical. A lot of this is popular science that anthropomorphizes these relationships and blow them out of proportion. What you may think of "communicate" and "think" does not necessarily reflect what is meant in this context.
