I hate giving low stars, but she was a sick plant from the start. Looks like Tobacco Mosaic Virus. No idea what might have caused that. I don't smoke or use any tobacco products and all my plants are using the same soil. But after 8 weeks she was still having issues, growing very slowly and didn't look like there was going to be much change. I'll try RQS Diesel Automatic again in the future and hope for no TMV next time.

Sadly, I cut her down early due to TMV. Hoping for better luck next time.

Grow Questions

Hello GD friends. My little Diesel Automatic is showing some odd mosaic'esque coloring on the baby leaves. I'm inclined to just let it go for now and see what happens. But if there are any suggestions on helping her out, please let me know! Thanks!

Kill, Fuck, Marry? She's almost 8 weeks old growing really slow. Still has the same odd coloring on leaves. Tried defoliating the most affected leaves. But no improvement. Should I kill her and cut my losses? Say fuck it and leave her grow? Or marry and try new solutions?

I can't remember the name but there is a disease that happens to tobacco plants that causes the exact same coloring on the leaves, i don't think it has any real damaging effect o the plant but i can't quite remember. I do know that it's pretty rare tho.

I chopped her down. I have more RQS Diesel Automatic seeds and will try again. But this sure did look like Tobacco Mosaic Virus, I don't want it spreading.

lol i know its a bit late but it looks like the problem you had might well have been an iron deficiency! click on this link for a look https://duckduckgo.com/?q=iron+deficiency+symptoms+in+cannabis&iax=images&ia=images

next grow try making more holes all over your pot, so more oxygen will flow thru, and maybe water less and distant from the base of the plant, so the root will develop all over the soil searching for water and when they reach the oxygen spot they will send signal to the base to send more roots to there. Plants need to be thirst often, and you should make the roots grow so the plant can grow.

Should I kill her and cut my losses? Say fuck it and leave her grow? Or marry and try new solutions? RQS said it looked like a phosphorus deficiency to them. I've tried giving her some Big Bloom & Recharge but no change in the past couple of weeks. New growth is small, I don't see any hairs at all yet. My gut says to kill her and cut my losses, but I'm curious what the GD team thinks.

DudeGrowsWeedcommented7 years ago
@Jeff123fish, I’ll test my feeding solution next feeding. And also test the run off. But I primarily water with Recharge only recently started feeding Fox Farm Organic Big Bloom (1/2 strength. I would not expect the ph to drop into the 5’s, but I’ll Test and let you know. Thanks again!

Jeff123fishcommented7 years ago
@DudeGrowsWeed,yes it ends in the optimal range but that in Theory means that your pouring in a very low ph solution and then the soil is buffering to 6.3-6.4. I can only guess that maybe your feed solution is maybe 5-5.5 which maybe is too acidic for this plant?
DudeGrowsWeed
DudeGrowsWeedcommented7 years ago
@Jeff123fish, I watered yesterday and checked the ph in the soil itself today and the soil ph was 6.3-6.4 in all containers. Isn't that in the optimal ph range?

I had a rqs diesel automatic not even germinate, with your skill and it still failing, glad it didn't for me tbh. I would have stressed myself out so much over this but she was a freebie with my order, now if there's anything wrong with the USA premium wedding cake I will be mad lol

Such patterns on the leaves come from an excess of calcium in tap water. When you lower your Ph, calcium is released and takes on an easily digestible form.

@James What do you think about the color pattern on the leaves with this girl? I’d love your opinion on this. Thanks!
