Mutations??
Cucumbersinmybackpackstarted grow question 2 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.

3 days in, only cotydelons with no sign of the first true leaves. Have you seen this and has it recovered?This plant was stunted at the start after he couldn't get his hat off, but now looks pretty healthy however it's been 3 days of just cotydelons and absolutely no sign of the first true leaves. Have you had this before and did it recover to eventually grow true leaves?

First Grow 4 weeks into Veg - Let my humidity get too high for 1 night. Need help with mold/septoria/?Last 3 days I've pruned diseased leaves every morning, foliar sprayed peroxide leaves & topsoil, & added some to watering solution. Is only affecting one plant in tent. Humidity no longer issue (was waiting 4 inline fan). If I keep pulling off leaves it's going to die anyway.

Big difference in first true leaves' sizeBig difference in first true leaves' size
Its almost day 5 after emergence. Is this normal? Should I be concerned?
ALSO: It's still a seedling but, I maybe think the cup in which i'm growing it in is too small, or rather I put too little soil (9cm diameter , 4cm tall dirt).

Calcium deficiency?Hello everyone,
I need your help once again.
I have just spotted some brown/yellow dots on 2 leaves of my plant.
Did some research and looks like Calcium deficiency, but still wanted to ask you.
If that's a Ca deficiency, should I add CalMag next time I feed her?
Thank you ✊

Brown spotsHello everyone,
I have to ask the same question, since that problem is spreading although I give her CalMag.
9 days ago only 2 fan leaves had those brown spots, now almost all of them are affected, especially higher ones.
I wanted to feed her once again and then start flushing
