Microscope View Of Cannabis Leaf.

Thought you guys may appreciate some pics I took with my microscope. You get a good look at the stomata and what I believe may also be the cell walls.

That's excellent specially seeing the stomata an actual cannabis leaf . . give a little further understanding how the leaf absorbs the light

Nah friend. Stomata is responsible for gas exchange.

I stand corrected, the chloroplast

: )

Unfortunately this microscope wasn't able to pick them up, but within a plant cell are these disk shaped organelles known as chloroplasts. They contain pigment, sort of like melanin in our skin that absorbs the light and converts it into glucose and ATP. (In our case as mammals, vitamin D, as we get the latter through our food.)

Okay I understand your scrutiny maybe my English is not so good but I also understand that chloroplast are unidirectional making a case in point the disadvantage of a single point light source . . thanks again for sharing

Nah man I'm just trying to provide some clarification. No worries.

Cool pics. Was that plant grown in co2 enriched conditions? Supplemental co2 is supposed to alter the size shape and number of stomata

Nope. I wasn't using co2 at all believe it or not. Only recently and lemme tell you it has BOOMED.

These leaves are also from an era of N burn.
