Please... not another Virus in 2020 D: is it TMV?

MyBrainHurtsstarted grow question 5y ago

One of my plants is showing some weird mottling on the leaves, is it Tobacco Mosiac Virus (TMV) or could it be caused by something else? 😬 So many mixed messages online, HELP?!?!?

Looks like it could be in the genetics and probably nothing to worry about. I would check your runoff ph level to make sure your in the proper range., if so it is just genetics. Cheers friend

Is that not enough calcium?How can I recognise that it is only a calcium deficide? The plant is also the largest and the only one with such deficiencies. Could the plant also be lacking manganese or magnesium and what can I use to compensate for this? Are pests or diseases excluded?

Hi there, does anyone have any idea what the slight mottling is on the leaves of two of my plants. There are close-up pictures under Day 27 in Week 4. The discolouration is present across multiple leaves, but seems to only be happening to two plants out of 8. Thanks!

Curled leaves occurred in both veg and flowering tents only to my purple trainwreck plants. Checked leaves with a loupe and couldn’t see signs of any pests at all. Only occurring on my PT plants in all tents. Other strains seem 100%. Only on large fan leaves, any ideas or help?

One plant (the one on the right) is going yellow, with brown mottling on the leaves. Both plants have been treated exactly the same. I’m giving the plant some calmag and extra nutrition after flushing it (which had no effect). Any ideas to save this plant? Worried…
