I need some advice before i kill my girls.here is the story: a few months ago I grew out a bag seed. when it was about a month old it started getting brown spots and what nots. after many attempts to diagnose the problem and about 150 bucks worth of bull shit the hydro store sold me it ended up being a male. so I chopped it and went to the dispensary and bought 2 sour D clones. well the clones are showing the same symptoms and I'm about 99% sure it is tobacco mosaic virus. all the plants have shown all the symptoms of TMV and none of them share a res so i'm pretty sure its not any kind of def. anyways from what i read you can not cure a plant that is infected, and it kills your yield and potency. I dont want to have to battle this shit forever so I'm considering scrapping this grow and starting over to get rid of the TMV. so my question is should I ride this shit out or start over?
If u are 100% positive that its TMV, without hesitation - scrap. Its up to us growers to catch this rotten affliction. Only thru elimination, can this virus be conquered. Obviously the dispensaries arent doin their jobs. Sorry to hear it bro, and get a hold of that dispensary and rattle their cage some. Freak
Sorry I dont have a page # but in my pest sticky I have a section devoted to this crappy task. Its very thorough, and will help u. Its near the beginning I think. Freak
