Cannabis nutrient-deficiency symptom onset and progression with upper/lower canopy tissue analysis; shows that visual onset and foliar elemental analysis do not always align simply.
Visual lesson 09
Senescence vs disorder
Separate expected age- and flowering-associated tissue senescence from atypical nutrient, root-zone, pathogen, or environmental decline by using developmental stage, distribution, rate of change, and healthy comparison plants.
Primary visual specification
Normal senescence versus disorder progression comparison
Create an academically accurate normal senescence versus disorder progression comparison for the Senescence vs disorder lesson. Use neutral studio lighting or clean academic illustration conventions, realistic botanical proportions, readable labels where needed, no yellow cast, and no decorative elements that compete with the teaching objective.
