      Frankly this is a light side power. Yoda and Windu both tame the lightning.

    How the fluff do they kill an average of 9 neighboring trees? By throwing wines at them? Or do they forward the elecrocute?

    (I know it doesn’t have detailed info in the article but maybe some of you nerds can provide some sweet knowledge)

      Think of lightning as having an area of effect

        Yeah but then it would be a massive and cheap stretch to say they “use lightning” to kill neighbours

          From the pictures, it appears they are taller than the rest. Perhaps this is an evolutionary development to draw more lightning strikes towards the area?
