Cannabis leaf morphogenesis, phyllotaxy, plant architecture, reproductive transition, inflorescence development, trichome development, and senescence across a complete life cycle.
Visual lesson 01
Node anatomy
Locate the leaf attachment, axillary bud, branch origin, stipules when present, and adjoining internodes at a cannabis node, recognizing the node as a repeated phytomer junction rather than a simple mark on the stem.
