Ok so I've finished my first round of Endless Sky with my second in progress. I'm still getting to know the strain but can at least offer an initial impression. I had 100% germination, very vigorous veg growth of all, cloned well, of course what it does in bloom is what really matters. I think...

Any more opinions?..........

Yeah, I have the same suspicion. I've just had other leaf symptoms that I never had in the past and nothing I've changed has fixed them, so I started to think virus. There's a few threads on it over at ICMag. I'm getting lots of fried leaves in bloom that reduce my yields even after I've reduced...

It's just that one leaf on the plant so far, so I wouldn't have thought anything of it except it looks just like what people are calling TMV. It's from an otherwise fine looking young plant in veg in pro-mix well fed with hydro nutes.

So I'm not saying this is Mosaic Virus, but this is the exact visual symptom that pretty much all of the threads in all of the forums identify as Mosaic Virus. I only found it in this one leaf on just one plant, which otherwise looks fine, so it doesn't seem very viral, but who knows? Anyone...

Yeah I'm baffled too! I've been growing for years without ever having any leaf symptoms, but in the last year I've been getting constant leaf issues in all my strains. I switched to pro-mix from hydro in hopes of the change fixing it but still can't shake it. Started to think maybe a virus had...

I guess nute burn is the most probable of the possibilities. It's just weird as a grower friend who's also in pro-mix top feeds daily with 1000ppm, never flushes at all, and has none of the burn I'm getting? Wish there was a way to test plants and know for sure, alas.

I just yesterday flushed with plain water in hopes of that being the cure, but I had not been flushing so far, I was hoping a low enough ppm would be enough, but perhaps not? I'd been doing hydro for years and just started pro-mix so it's new to me. Never had burn in hydro at much higher ppm...

They're about 2ft below a cooled HPS, thermometer at the tops of the plants reads around 80deg, max 82 lights on, wouldn't have thought that too hot?

Hmmm. Well I'm using RO water so the 500ppm is all nutrient. I thought pH 6.0 to 6.5 was standard for peat based mixes? I sure don't want to add nutes if they're burning, or flush if they need nutes. I'm leaning towards burn as they look it, it's just baffling as I've run higher ppm in the past...

Or something else? I'm in pro-mix with 25% extra perlite for drainage, top feed/water every other day with 500ppm GH nutes till runoff, 6.2pH. Wouldn't they droop if too wet? And they're never droopy, just yellow and burnt fan leaves, mostly toward the outer leaf/tips, hard to believe it's...

Wow, that's rough, I'm surprised to hear that, I had thought Canada was way more relaxed about the whole weed issue than the U.S. from all the B.C. stuff, seed banks, and breeders up there?! Sad to see things go that way. What if you kept one mother and grew just two big plants, what's the...

Oh don't get me started about mattresses!

Yeah, it's got to be nute burn right? Just baffled how's it getting worse at 500ppm feed solution?

In case it's nute burn I want to flush with plain water, but am slightly afraid to in case the roots have been too wet, hence my dilemma. Here's how they were a week ago(worse now)....
