Node
Definition: node
node: a point on the stem of a plant where a leaf is attached. Understanding plant anatomy, including nodes, helps farmers manage crop growth and health. Nodes are crucial points for leaf and branch development, and knowing their location can guide pruning and training practices. Proper management of nodes can improve air circulation, light penetration, and overall plant structure, leading to healthier crops and higher yields. Knowledge of plant nodes supports effective crop management and enhances farm productivity.
