An abnormal growth where small flower buds form directly on the fan leaves of the plant, rather than on the usual bud sites along the stems and branches. This phenomenon is unusual and may occur due to genetic mutations, stress, or improper growing conditions. While these leaf buds contain trichomes and cannabinoids like normal buds, they are typically small and not as potent or desirable as regular cannabis flowers.
