If you have 4 plants in one patch. Do you choose a leaf from each plant for tissue testing? Or do you choose multiple leaves from one plant? 4 tests would be $$$$$.

Just did a tissue test and spoke to Cathy at Western Labs today. Send a stem from a mature leaf from each plant. They test them stems not leaves on AG's. When I did mine I took a leaf from each plant around 5th leaf back from main vine tip. If all your plants are in the same patch then they just combine all the stems for one test. If from different patches I'd think you'd want separate tests. Good luck.
