Is this bloom supposed to look "faded" like it does? Or am I missing some nutrients/minerals? It was just repotted less than 5 weeks ago.
And what is up with this leaf? (the one with the line I drew coming out of it)
Enjoy them; I know I will. I found a thrips on this one, so I'm spending the morning disbudding AGAIN!
Make it a great day everyone,
