We should also work towards making an underground nerve filament, so that we can connect plants root to root, and pass communications back to the hive mind, infected plants could then have a tiny creature created that has eyes and connects directly to the filament, we would then have a spy camera network, goodbye fog of war.

You send combat crab into the U-pipe that explorer crab is in.

Collector crab begins to infect the surround landscape, changing the plants so that the roots act as a network (Eventually connected to you, of course.) and adding eyes and ears to the plants, to act as a spy network.

After finishing everything, you ponder your next step.

Check for anything that looks like it would be useful to infect using the spy network.

You check for anything useful on your spy network. Nope, nothing.

The two crabs advance, at least, you think. It's very dark. Oh, they seem to have blundered onto something.

Have them attack like the vicious, bloodthirsty crabs they are.

We don't have eggs. We have spores, and posion. We're kind of a FUNGUS ragnarok.

Create a smaller drone (about the size of a fist), with advanced senses and bioluminescence to aid the tentacrabs.

Wooo! spy network!

Change trees to grow their root networks together, so that nutrients and water can be sent from tree to tree if any can't get enough for themselves and if large quantities are needed.

Make a flying creature with the highly specific task to fly around and rapidly infect lots of trees, evrything abaut it adapted to this task and only this task.

Actually, trees do that already using a network of mushrooms. :) I'd say use this entwork to infect every single tree on this landmass. Then make them poisonous, so that any animal eating them become infected.
