Cannabis leaf morphogenesis, phyllotaxy, plant architecture, reproductive transition, inflorescence development, trichome development, and senescence across a complete life cycle.
Visual lesson 04
LST & directional growth
See how branch orientation, gravitropic and phototropic response, light exposure, and mechanical support can redistribute canopy height while preserving tissue continuity.
Interactive academic visual
LST & directional growth
Repositioning shoots changes height, orientation and light exposure without intentionally severing the stemGentle bend
Low-stress training changes shoot orientation while preserving vascular continuity.
