Hey guys I been trying to do absolutley everything right here with ph and ppm e.t.c.... my main plant afgahn kush is Thriving but is now showing signs of what i suspect to be TMV , i have another strain growing next to it vanilla kush and its doing fine no signs at all. i would just like to share whats going on with others and hopefully get a few more opinions on what could be going on, I've just invested in all the gadgets around 2 weeks ago ( digital ph tester, blue lab truncheon meter e.t.c)

 

started nuting the girls around 2 weeks ago, they seemd to love it, there were a few small brown/rust spots on the leaves before nuting but i didnt think to much of it at the time, its now spreading to other sets of lower leaves, what makes me think its TMV is because the first set of growth is all nice and smooth and now all the new growth literally feels like sandpaper and looks real rough to....not to mention the discolouration btween light and dark green in the new growth

 

i'll attach as many good photos as i can, if you want to ask me about anything else of the setup go ahead, I'd really like to get a second opinion here as if a few ppl think its tmv im ripping it out, I have a few more beans here from demon waiting to go :)

 

they are abit droopy in the photos as i have been flushing as a precaution for any nute burns or salt buildups

 

if it helps i do smoke and have sessions in the room i have the cupboard in, however have heard from others they smoke right infront of there plants and nothing becomes of it, i did have a Good mate come over one day after work showed him the progress and he starts rubbing his hands on the leaves! i cracked it and told him to wash his hands or better yet dont even touch the plants lol, hope this didnt pass it on?(if it is)

Classic overfeeding symptoms mate, as you were told in your other two threads... Make sure your EC and pH are within range, try to achieve 5.8 as a line in the sand. Measure your run off as that tells the real story.

 

A good flush and let em dry off a bit will help get over it for now.

cheers mate i'm just trying to get a few more opinions, like i stated in another thread the local hydroshop had a quick look at one of the leaves and suggested tmv straight away??? anyway must of got her on a bad day, slowly getting my head around the ph and ec alot easier to measure when you got the proper gadgets, was flying in the dark there for the first 2 weeks,

 

shes had 2 flushs now so i'll let her dry out for a few days and see what happens, i'll leave it at that for now and post some pics in a few days
