Mutations??
Cucumbersinmybackpackstarted grow question 3 years ago
What causes mutation? Is it the strains? Will silica do this to the plants? I'm interested to know exactly why this happens or if anything triggers it.

Hello. When you get right down to it, Cosmic Rays cause mutations. A Cosmic Ray can damage a part of the DNA which the cell repairs, but doesn't always get it right. That is where the mutation comes out. Mostly the strain passes the mutation on to the next generation. The mutations can be either good and helpful or bad and destructive for the plant. Chuck.

Minor mutations are normal and completely random, just like how some people get freckles or dimples.
Leaf mutations are very, very common in cannabis and of no real concern.
It just happens and nothing triggers it.

@Cucumbersinmybackpack the mutations are caused from the breeding process and the amount of
inbreeding of strains that is happening now in the Cannabis world .
there is a real possibility of extinction of the original cannabis we love through over hybridization

Mostly random genetics acting up. damaged DNA, or an environmental reaction to something.
Would not think/worry to much about it, that more for breeders and people trying to create generations of plants.
Good Luck!

If you look at my zkittlez organic the first 2 weeks she had a few mutations but she grew out of them and on another plant done the exact same way in the very same conditions is growing fine. Just luck of the draw thing, unless you are doing something drastic we really can't control where nodes or fan leafs grow... hope this helps.

Tiny holes!?This morning while looking I noticed tiny little holes on some of the leaves on one of my plants. I didn't see any pests with my eye, and I tried to use my phone the best I could but couldn't see any. I've also heard this could be environmental/viral. Any thoughts or ideas?

New growth looking strange and growth slowed down (wilting?)The new growth of my plants are looking a bit strange, and growth seems to be slowed down.
Could this be that the light is too strong? Or can this happen if the humidity is too low?
I already installed an humidifier but looks like its not helping.
Whats going on?

Spotted LeavesMy ladies looked good until recently, it has been very warm the last few days. Then they began to let their leaves hang down (didn't get enough water) and gradually turned yellow, now they are getting spots. This is my first grow and I am not sure what it could be.

Identify Issue: Brown Spots, Lower leaves first, from outer-tipsShowing up on 2 out of the 5 in my soil bed. Front 2. Transplanted 10 days ago, went well enough.
Watering with tap water, never tested but didn't have an issue last run. Same soil, but I did add 8 cu ft of new soil to the top. Gently amended with b6, Kashiblend, coconut powder.

1 out of 3 doesnt do as well as the othersIm just wondering why one out of 3 plants, does not perfectly well while the others seem doing awesome. Can it really differ from a strain that it shows signs of light stress or nutrient burn while other plants seem to do well with it?
I added 3 pics, 1st one showing the meh one

Normal trichomes or something bad?Dumb question, I started noticing this on my leaves. I recently battled with insane humidity which I was just recently able to fix, and was wondering if this is normal/my usual over worrying or if it's some sort of mold/mildew/fungus or something I should actually worry about.
