Need some opinions from the forum on something very strange that I have found attached to numerous leaves on the top three quarters of a number of my plants.
I grow very large trees indoors in a sealed basically sterile environment, in RDWC and have never had any issues with regards to virus or pests however this run is showing signs of what looks to be calcium and or magnesium deficiency for some strange reason on at least three quarters of the plants.
I've inspected every single plant and quite frankly every single leaf and only found very few that had these very microscopic Orange balls or what look to be balls. Not a grouping of balls simply just one very microscopic orange ball or what looked to be, on only a very limited few leaves on very few plants.
I decided to put it under my microscope at a thousand times magnification and it looks to me as though it is a cocoon of sorts and that something has come out of it. The size of these anomalies are the size of a grain of salt just for reference to anybody chiming in.
Short of a bit of chlorosis as shown in the images and what looks to be calcium and magnesium deficiency I have no idea what these random unknowns are.
Looking forward to the masses chiming in with any experienced opinions of what the possibilities maybe plants are otherwise healthy large between 6 1/2 and 8 ft tall 4 feet to 6ft around and begging of week 4 in flower
Environmental is dialed and always is.
Anyone have any ideas what this could be?
