not to fear you but:

Virus-Induced Diseases in Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) Plants:

More than 100 microorganisms (fungi, bacteria, virus, etc.) can cause disease in cannabis. In many studies conducted; hemp streak virus (HSV), hemp mosaic virus (HMV), alfalfa mosaic virus (AMV), cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and arabis mosaic virus (ArMV) have been reported to cause diseases in hemp varieties. Also, tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), tobacco ringspot virus (TRSV), tobacco streak virus (TSV), tomato ringspot virus (TomRSV), eunoymous ringspot virus (ERSV), elm mosaic virus (EMV), and foxtail mosaic virus (FMV) are isolated from hemp plants. In recent years, studies on cannabis viruses have reported that beet curly top virus (BCTV) and lettuce chlorosis virus (LCV) infect cannabis plants.

YO BROTHER! Hey now be easy on yourself! This shit is not as easy as folks make it out to be (sayin it’s easy or just makin it look easy!) youll get it figured out if you can get through these first few “growing” pains hahaha sorry I had too! There are a lot of really smart people here (not saying you’re not smart by any means) there’s just some REALLY smart and EXPERIENCED growers here who can help you out. Also it’s hard to test your knowledge acquired in this game. Learn something at the end of a flower run and you have to wait almost 6 months before you can apply that adjustment or new technique. You get it man! Im currently struggling with some nute deficiencies cause by my super goofy led light I made. Hang in there dude! Don’t be so hard on yourself! Strive for excellence of course but know your own streangths and weaknesses so you can treat yourself appropriately: ) im my hardest critic! Need to remind myself constantly to back off and be a little more easy on myself! YOU GOT THIS!

BearWater,

Oh I know the issue, it's the first time I reused promix and I didn't rinse it out. I think I'm on 8th water of just water and a gallon runoff. Trying to flush it out to get the stripes to stop before I flip. The mangled leaves is because this is a clone from a plant I pinched the head closed every 3 days all the way through veg. That makes the leaves really messed up. But that's not the stripping, issue that's from hot soil.

She only 30 days since put in pot so she growing, she just very ugly. Third generation of same plant even still showing the mangled leaves but no stripping as I rinsed the promix very well before I put them in pots.

I'm just saying, I'm a bad grower, but I'm keep at it, maybe another 3 years I get better.

The first thing I'd do is spray the plant with water and Epsom Salt (i.e., foliar feed1 tablespoon per gallon) to see if the plant can be made healthy. It looks like it's still vegging, which is a good thing.

I mean - she's good size so roots got to be ok
and how about repot instead of flushing?

I would do foliar Mg on such a specific lady

They won't improve. Look for healthy new growth.

You don't suck at growing. You're just getting stuff dialed in and learning like the rest of us. I've been growing for over 10 years now and still learn new stuff every day on here.

@Pilted - A grower can learn a lot while nursing a sick plant to health.

Yeah the new growth is looking better but still has some striping. It will get there. Thanks good advice.

Geezus you mean I still got another 7 years before I get good. Hey on the bright side I haven't had to buy weed in 2 years. That will do, that will do.

no such thing as hot soil, but reusing soil in todays growing world is a big NO NO..
HLVd can live in dead roots for 6 months+..
why you think the plant is the way it is, is not from what you think,.
flushing 8 times? why,
was re using the soil worth it?
