Controlled single-nutrient deficiency and toxicity symptom progression paired with Cannabis tissue analysis; supports visual-plus-analytical diagnosis rather than image-only conclusions.
Visual lesson 10
Evidence weighting & confirmatory testing
Treat a visual pattern as a hypothesis generator, rank evidence by specificity and reliability, and choose the next discriminating observation, measurement, microscopy check, tissue test, or pathogen assay before escalating a diagnosis.
