trichs are everywhere . "Cannabis plants produce THC and CBN on their stems, leaves, and vegetation surrounding the buds and are developed in trichomes, which emerge on the surface of most of the plant’s parts. On the stems and the early fan leaves, the trichomes are small and hug the surface. As the flowering phase continues, the glands develop on the more mature parts of the plant, including the smaller leaves and the first calyxes (which exist to develop and nurture seeds if male pollen fertilizes the female plant). The trichomes that develop on calyxes no longer hug the plant’s surface, but are on stalks like mushrooms with bulbous caps. During this time, more and more trichome-covered calyxes develop and create densely packed clusters, called ‘bud’. As your plants enter the final stages of their life cycle, the calyxes begin to swell and ripen, while more and more resin glands develop on the surface."
stop being so fuckin ignorant.

sorry but this has absolutely nothing to do with the op's post.

How come nobody with experience has said that's what they are?
no idea..
"A pubescent leaf will feel furry to the touch. This texture is produced by
microscopic hairs called trichomes that help it stand up to brutally dry
conditions."
not just cannabis has trichomes lol..its just the name of a hair growth, moron. that man is just getting confused in his botany class.
any you call yourself farmers

So, basically you're trying to say you see something and know more than everybody that has looked at that pic?
THE HAIRS ON THE LEAVES ARE CALLED TRICHOMES FOR THE HUNDRETH TIME! THEY FORM THE PUBESCENT STRCTURE. THE. HAIRS. ARE. TRICHOMES!!
no, im not trying to say it, im trying to teach you something that botanists have said.
"A pubescent leaf will feel furry to the touch. This texture is produced by
microscopic hairs called trichomes that help it stand up to brutally dry
conditions.
If you've ever experienced the hot winds of the desert, you know how quickly
it can draw moisture out of your own skin.
Moisture loss increases with wind speed. It does exactly the same to plants.
The trichome hairs help to baffle the air at the leaf surface so it slows down.
Even a minor slowing can have a significant effect on reducing moisture loss
through stomata.
Pubescence also helps to shade the leaf surface. Each tiny hair casts a
microscopic shadow to protect the leaf's outer layer from direct solar exposure.
Pubescent plants are valuable tools in garden design.
First, they can truly glow under moonlight because the hairs can be so
reflective they become iridescent.

transpiration is what helps protect plants from dry conditions not by hairs you call trichomes-
Transpiration is a process similar to evaporation. It is a part of the water cycle, and it is the loss of water vapor from parts of plants (similar to sweating), especially in leaves but also in stems, flowers and roots. Leaf surfaces are dotted with openings which are collectively called stomata, and in most plants they are more numerous on the undersides of the foliage. The stoma are bordered by guard cells (together known as stomatal complex) that open and close the pore.[SUP][1][/SUP] Leaf transpiration occurs through stomata, and can be thought of as a necessary "cost" associated with the opening of the stomata to allow the diffusion of carbon dioxide gas from the air for photosynthesis. Transpiration also cools plants, changes osmotic pressure of cells, and enables mass flow of mineral nutrients and water from roots to shoots.
Plants regulate the rate of transpiration by the degree of stomatal opening. The rate of transpiration is also influenced by the evaporative demand of the atmosphere surrounding the leaf such as humidity, temperature, wind and incident sunlight. Soil water supply and soil temperature can influence stomatal opening, and thus transpiration rate. The amount of water lost by a plant also depends on its size and the amount of water absorbed at the roots. Stomatic transpiration accounts for most of the water loss by a plant, but some direct evaporation also takes place through the cuticle of the leaves and young stems. Transpiration serves to evaporatively cool plants as the escaping water vapor carries away heat energy.
that is how they lose the water, youre explaning a process, not a physical part of the plant.
trichomes, or hair like appendages protect from extensive water loss. i didnt write it, my plant biology book did.
i could care less if you believe it or not.
the op asked what the hairs are, and i told him the truth.

You make up complete shit from the git-go. You are treading in deep water and slipping deeper by the moment. Nobody believes your bullshit.

Trichomes are sunscreen but not in the fashion bmeat thinks. The water drop shape on top does exactly what a water drop does and refracts light in a different direction. And it is not to cool it down, it is to protect itself from intense UVB.
