I would say meh unless they are covering a bud site or you're dealing with humidity issues. Leaves are good for plants!

Does anyone know what the really small silver streaks could be? Im growing in a cupboard which is a consistent temp of 22 Celsius. Have checked undersides of leaves for pests and cant seem to see anything. Is it a nutrition deficiency. I have not used any fertiliser yet.

would you call it flower phase, look at the recent zoomed picture. Also, the weak and sick blueberry, i think it was pH levels. Do you agree?

Hey you fine horticulterists, another question thrown at you. When scouting online I've seen that some growers put their ladies thru a 24 hour dark period before harvesting. Is this something you do ? Is it required ? What are your preferences at harvest festival time ? 🕊️
