Local gas stations carried them here in the 90’s, still might.
Local gas stations carried them here in the 90’s, still might.We used to get HT in a plain brown wrapper in the mail. Postman asked me once about it, I told him it was an 'adult' magazine. He nodded and never said another word about it.
I had this happening in veg ( they turned out to be auto flowers), started in one bed, and now I see it in another bed 10 feet across with photos in late veg. Seems to be spreading.Has anyone seen this issue before?
Temps have been hot: 28-31C Day / 15-22C Night with 75-85% humidity Avg.
Appears to be affecting all plants in the garden except a freezeland/timewarp strain that had flowered itself and was in and out of veg/flower all summer. Other than that some 15 or 16 strains of varying age have been affected.
Yep me to. Sprayed with fungicide out of desperation but probably won't help. Maybe one day someone will 100% find out what it is. Last year mine pretty much grew out of it.Ours did it again this year, and we were having a mild drought. No moisture issues. These were big plants, and not cuttings. We had this happen to over 500 plants. And 8 different strains. Weve been battling this problem for at least 6 years. Totally ruined the wholle crop. Maybe 4-5 plants out of 500+ didnt get it, but the season isnt over yet either.
Awesome please update if you hear backI messaged Ed Rosenthal on Facebook, and also sent several photos. Maybe he will respond. I think someone mesaged him long ago, and they never reported back, so I assume Ed didnt answer.
See my post belowOurs did it again this year, and we were having a mild drought. No moisture issues. These were big plants, and not cuttings. We had this happen to over 500 plants.

It's not. It's a virus. See my post.I can pretty much guarantee its moisture issues after a few more tests leaving more foliage on some trays, not on others and leaving more foliage but not leaving vents and lids on as long.
The ones with less foliage were fine, the ones with more but taking opening vents and lid sooner were 95% fine. Ones I left both foliage and vents etc closed a little longer were identical to this
It's a virus. See my postSo one problem I’m going to fix for next year is that they don’t get morning sun to evaporate all the dew quickly. The sun rises from the left of this picture and goes to the right throughout the day. One picture has a candy striped leafhopper, found one a couple days ago. The rest are just updates. Much deeper green than before, but still black/purple present.View attachment 1157200
If the plants are full veg, just spray a good fungicide. Daconil will wipe it out and will be 100% gone in 14 days. All of our vegetables are sprayed with fungicides. It's all about days to harvest. Yes, your "organic" vegetables are sprayed too.Try wetable sulfur for your leaf spot (Bonide makes a good one). Remove infected leaves and burn. Clean tools after every snip so you dont spread it.
Yup. Leaf hoppers will do it. I found out through one of my fertilizer manufacturers. They distribute to high end growers. He made a call to them, sand sent them pictures. They diagnosed and have me a remedy. It works fairly well.On a couple of other forums Ive always stated I thought it was some kind of virus, or bacteria. Possibly spread by leaf hoppers. Leaf hoppers are everywhere in my neck of the woods.
If it were a bacteria, that would be easy. Unfortunately, viruses can't be eliminatedOn a couple of other forums Ive always stated I thought it was some kind of virus, or bacteria. Possibly spread by leaf hoppers. Leaf hoppers are everywhere in my neck of the woods. I agree its some kind of virus. What the name is, is my next question.
Yeah at that point I was only guessing. But always thought it was probably spread by leaf hoppers whatever it was. So Daconil is the cure?? Plus using treatments of Potassium and silica, or both?? We alreay add 0-0-52 into the soil, and the Azomite we use is loaded with silica. Id be afraid to add more Potassium since were using 0-0-52.If it were a bacteria, that would be easy.

It's a virus result spread. See my postBackyard amateur grower here - never had this problem but it started with one plant and has spead to two others. Tried ladybugs, CalMg and sulphur. still marching on...any advice? Many thanks to those who posted thoughtfully on this thread for 2 years
No, I was replying to another post about leaf spot. DAC will stop it in its tracks.Yeah at that point I was only guessing. But always thought it was probably spread by leaf hoppers whatever it was.

So silica and silicon are different. Silicon is usually used for turgidity but seems to help. If you're using a granular form of K, you may not be getting good uptake. I use straight liquid. fertilizers are made dramatically differently. Chelation makes a huge difference in the plants ability to take up that nutrient.Yeah at that point I was only guessing.
