Question for #plant #biologists that might be in my network:
Q: I grow batches of #sequoia. About one quarter of seedlings form little water drops on the tips of the first leaves / cotyledons. These stay in place for about two weeks. The rest of the seedlings do not show any of this.
I assume this is some type of guttation. Any I'm loosely theorizing it has to do with how the cotyledons were split, maybe damaged. But frankly, I don't know :-)
Any insight from 🌲 🌱 #science people are welcome!
