At what point will we see that plants are conscious, just in a different manner than animals colloquially?

Stimulus-response is not consciousness. There is nothing subjective about this mechanical and chemical response to injury.

I guess to you the brain isn't much different to a plant them? Works mostly on chemical, electrical and some mechanical processes ?
