Saw you browsing my album.
Just tickled that you enjoyed it.
But you do flatter me.
Experience, I got.
But my knowledge would be better described as half vast.

so heres the question: is there a normal residue that is found on the leafs or should they be smooth? i am new to this so i dont know if this is normal or what. it looks like verry fine sugar untill i rub some off and it seems to disolve, it smells verry organic, i know crystals are a god thing but this has ben thre for a while now and is increasing slightly on the new 12/12 schedule. the area stays dry and cool. never abobe 80F and in the dark it gets down to 73F min.
You've got a lot of reading and picture browsing ahead of you, young man.
Best get right to it, yah?.

The fan leaf is usually smooth-ish.
The sugar leaf, should be, um, sugared.
Da mo' da betta!:thumbsup:

You've seen my macro shots of trichomes, yah?
Note that the distribution is relatively uniform.
If you see random patches of a powdered sugar looking substance on the big leaves, that would better describe Powdery Mildew.

Do not be afraid to post pics of the leaves when asking for help.
That will get you a real diagnosis
Possession of pot pics is still legal ya know :smokin:.

Aloha,
