+1 and guidelings can also fend off animals that could damage the tree.
I thought that was implied.

Continue hive parasitism. We want to grow through the tree, and end up on top of it.
Have the hives evolve to be symbiotic with trees. The hives get off the ground and a solid protection around them; the trees get protection and are fertilized by scraps of food and waste from the Hives.
+1 and guidelings can also fend off animals that could damage the tree. Though I still think the hive should get balloons and the ability to move from tree to tree should the need arise.

+1 to all these, I'd say.

I reiterate my suggestion that we have the cattle cast develop translucent gut pouches to hold symbiotic algae
's about all the crazy I got at the moment

Very well.

You know our previous plans of being mind flayers? Hives release spores that attach to organisms and establish control over them. Why symbiotize trees when we can make them our mind slaves?

Nah.

I like original stuff, and stuff that's remotely possible. Also, usefulness is debatable.

YES.  Start to evolve into mind flayers.  We may not be able to use genuine psychic powers, but we've already proven we can do symbiosis and parasite functions.  A driver caste that infiltrates and hijacks other organisms' nervous systems, and maintains communication with us is a step in the right direction.

It's useful to keep a ‼torch‼ handy.

WHY IS THERE A 7.

Also I have thought of a way we could biologically possibly do this.
