    I can't help but wonder what evolutionary pressure or benefit caused the plant to develop the trichomes?

    • @insideaero7660
      @insideaero7660 2 года назад +1

      Afaik the trichomes are a natural shield/reflector against radiation.
      The plant comes originally from the Nepal/Hindukush area. Means, she had to fight the radiation of the sun for propably millions of years. In my opinion it is some kind of a natural evolutionary developed shield against UV and other to biological lifeforms hazardous radiations (be it from the ultra short or ultra long spectrum of light). Well, that is at least what i got from reading deep into it back in the days. I was already growing in the 90s, and i remember that we already had studies from scientists floating around at that time. Cant remember specific names, but i definitely know that science researched that already 20-30 years ago. If i remember an article or scientific paper about it, then ofc i will add it here as comment.
