Best place to check for bugs would likely be toward the lower half of the plant. I have ZERO experience with TMV, but wish you the best.

it isn't tmv

it's pds.

paranoid delusion syndrome. get a test and check. it isn't tmv, and it really doesn't look so bad. i'd check your everything first, then get back to us.

TMV is easily spread from plant to plant. If the infected plant is touching the LSD plant at all, or if you have been working with the plants in the same area, and one plant has it and the other does not- it's most likely NOT TMV.

It will finish out OK. Cut back on the fertilizer a bit.

If you "think" you can water a bit more do so.

Nice proper green to the rest of the plant(s)

Well i have seen few cases of mosaic virus on these boards so chances are its not. Many have thought they have had it only to realise they didnt. Would it not be called cannabis mosaic virus as these arent tomato plants i wonder, isnt it more an outdoor soil problem not indoor grows.

Good luck with the diagnosis :-)

I belong to an eclectic group of growers and we get together and and discuss/study all forms of growing and it's problems.
We (as) a group, have sent literally HUNDREDS and hundreds of samples to a Prof and some of his grad students over the years (MSU)....Each of these samples were tested for TMV, MV and SHV......NEVER has even ONE test return positive for ANY MV or related plant condition.

In a long discussion with this Prof. He stated that in all his experience he has NEVER seen an actual positive test for any Mosaic Virus in Cannabis. He has read ref. material that indicates some sort of "possible MV type" of virus having infected "industrial" hemp farms pre WWI and a cpl of minor break outs during the 1st World War. He said the reports say that while the crop lost yield. It never destroyed the crop for it's intended end product of rope and super high grade AV oils for the US military!

He has a theory that Cannabis breeding for the "consumptive" market is effectively breeding out the susceptibility to any possible MV!

He strongly feels that Cannabis does not even GET real MV! He says that most of the issues he see's ARE types of mites that attack leaf stems and veins and they sort of burrow in and that gives you the whorl or bending. Along with that yellow mottled leaf look!

He wish's that we would all remember that what you find on the net about MV and Cannabis. Is passed along "assumptions" not based in Botanical fact...By people with no actual Agronomy training!

Lastly he likes to point out to those who would say "What about the Sunn Hemp strain of MV?" Sunn Hemp is a BEAN!

I have actually taken plants that "look" like classic MV infection and have literally rubbed them together just to see if it passed along....Nope, not once....

REAL MV problems expand and advance quickly with time. I've seen whole bean crops fail with it! It actually severely withers plants and inhibits flowering and fruiting! I've never seen ANY Cannabis plant with a suspected MV infection ever get worse then maybe a very few other leaves bend and get a bit of yellow on one side of the leaf.....

Breath freely and consider using Forbid 4F and treat for Broad mites! Organic and contact killing methods are rather ineffective on Broad mites at best....


Hows that Mr X ?
