The cotyledons are enclosed in a little sac. It usually sheds with the shell but sometimes it sticks to the leaves like yours. If you moisten it then it will get soft, but it won't hurt anything. Good luck on your grow!

Hello fellow growers! So, i heard that removing the big leaves from the plant at the beginning of flowering stage is good because it will help for the buds. Is it true? Its my first time having it right and i dont want To screw everything. Thank you ! :)

Leaf it alone?So I feel like these colas are more sugar leaves than buds. Should I have defoliated them more? It’s week 17 is it too late to be thinking about defoliation? I just want to get the best out of these last couple weeks. Trichomes appear glassy/clear. Would u agree?Buds. Not fattening

During this crucial switch between veg to flowering, plants are unhappy about the $2000 stim check. Must appease them, pls helpSwitched to 12-12 and damn... that preflowering stretch is no joke. My 3x3 is overflowing with fan leaves. Humidity has gone up on its own since the switch, from ~20-30 to 50-70%. Idk why. Reading about flowering. Any pointers? Start adding flow nutes?Room up,maxed horizontal5y ago
