      Hi Lauren! Here is the definition: Guttation is the process where water droplets are exuded from plants, typically at the edges or tips of leaves, through specialized structures called hydathodes. This occurs when root pressure is high, usually at night or during periods of high humidity when transpiration rates are low. The water lost through guttation contains dissolved substances like sugars and minerals, making it distinct from dew, which is simply condensed atmospheric moisture. Mine experienced it from my office having high humidity for a few days.
