I have these small white lines on some leaves, newer and older growth alike. It appears on the "veins" of the leaves. Is it normal? or is it a concern? How to fix if necessary?
Hey Growmie,
Those white lines look like the trademark of leaf miners. Leaf miners are insect larvae that hatch from eggs deposited between the upper and lower surface of plant leaves. The hungry larvae munch their way around the leaf, leaving a telltale white trail or tunnel. You can use Spinosad Products or Neem Oil to fix it. The Spinosad products though are organic and completely harmless to pets, children, and plants.
Hopefully, I answered your question and remember ..."Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time".
Anything with minimum 50 to 60x zoom, would work for viewing trichomes.
- Personally I use a wifi microscope that can do 50 - 1,000x zoom. Just because I could.. It's a tad more expensive than one with just 50x zoom tho.
Hi ... i apparently had a hermaphrodite in my tent that pollinated itself and another plant as well.
My question is ... Can i use the seeds that come from the suspected hermaphrodite plant or the plant i suspect it pollinated, and, will they be feminized, regular, or hermie?
Hi!
If the seeds are from hermie plant and it pollinates normal female the risk of hermies is smaller but I wouldnt take the chance 'cos it can hermie basically anytime in flower.
The seeds are feminized that comes out of those but there is so much more higher tendency to hermie.
@Tweezer, Thank You so very much! ... It's going "so far, so good" i'd say ... i plan to initiate flowering pretty soon.
I gotta say that i'm just elated that i lived long enough to be able to grow my own weed at home without fear of prosecution. I never would have believed that would ever happen back in the 70s.
@MrJones, Thank you! ... this is my first adventure in indoor growing, and my first grow at all since the 70s. Horticulture technology has come a long way since then!
