Hi, I left my plants looking incredibly healthy for a day and a half over the weekend. It seems that the roots really dug in, and caused an explosive amount of growth.

However, during this time something has been ravishing the tops of my plants! It/They have been eating the uppermost grow tips, mostly the reticulate of the leaflets. Pictures speak louder than words so have a look:

This attack has also made the majority of the growing tips have a twisted and generally 'stressed' look, i'm wandering what kind of beast could be clambering over my plants!!

Please help, my plants were looking so nice and healthy before this happened!!

looks to me that you topped them... and you may have damaged the leaf bud when doing it

Check the underside of the leaves.
Signature space for rent, very good rates.

Unusual to see inside, its capsid bug damage.
Q. how do i make seeds?

A. You take a splinter off my cross, tie a few hairs to one end of it, dip the hairs into the pollen and lightly brush the pistils with it.
