TMV VIRUS?

I've looked up broad mites and my symptoms do look like that. The leafs curl up and a bunch off other shit
one of our members has sent in a bunch of samples of suspected tmv damage in cannabis plants to have it tested, and over the years, he's never had a positive result for tmv in cannabis, leading him, and many others, to believe that tmv does not exist in cannabis plants, and the culprit usually ends up being something like russel mites like mentioned already in this thread..

How do I get this?

Could be a variegated leaf mutation, there are a few strains that carry it commonly from what I've heard. If broad mites, your new growth will eventually stop coming in and not look so good. Maybe keep it separated for a bit and see what develops.

That's russet mite damage.
The plant still looks healthy and still growing fast
Could be hemp russet mite? Symptoms of infestation can vary with any mites, seems different strains can handle the sap suckers better than others.
Why would you think it was a mosaic virus? Do you have a veggie garden? There are other mosaic viruses than tmv but not sure the chances of transmission.

Does not look like broad mites to me.
I've had them.
I predict you will be fine. Just one of those things that happens.

I have had plants that were split down the middle yellow and green.

Usually only affects a portion of the plant in my case

But sincenonlyh on new growth something influenced it if it is mutation.

Ha ha, I've had them too, but leaves did look like his. I think there are variations in broad mites that cause differing looks of damage. Maybe I misdiagnosed but the Forbid4F did the trick on whatever it was. Happy ending.
I dont doubt ya a bit
Mine were in flower and it murdered mine. Lol
