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 lean more toward what HerbalEdu said about viruses.

Can be cured. Mosaic symptoms are variable but commonly include irregular leaf mottling (light and dark green or yellow patches or streaks). Leaves are commonly stunted, curled, or puckered; veins may be lighter than normal or banded with dark green or yellow. FLUSH YOUR PLANTS get rid of the bad juju in your soil, then get your soil right.

So just finished up the trim. Pics not that good lighting wasn't the best but gives you an idea of what I did. Just trimmed up the bottom to get the majority of the larpy stuff off. The bigger fan leaves on top creating shade for the branches left will be as needed.

I'm starting to think that's what it was. But weird the first and second generation of that plant didn't have the issue then the 3rd and 4th 5th generation did. The 6th and 7 th generation had it but minimal. Then I just stopped cloning that plant.

ā€œMosaicā€ disease is caused by a virus. The tobacco mosaic virus is very stable and can persist in contaminated soil, in infected plant debris, on or in the seed coat, and in manufactured tobacco products. The virus is transmitted readily from plant to plant by mechanical means.

This may simply involve picking up the virus while working with infected plant material, then introducing it to healthy plants by rubbing or brushing against them with contaminated tools, clothing, or hands"

Man I smoke roll your own cigarettes, so I am always touching tobacco then I touch the plant. I have had this issue on multiple plants. I guess it's time to start using gloves when trimming and training. I just trimmed these ones up and was touching them all over the place.

Well shit.

Nothing to spectacular, no real issues, leaves look at correct angle so I think lights in a good distance.

Have a good day everyone.

This is the fertilizer I am using,. The $49.99 pack is the one I bought. It's lasted me over 18 months with 4 plants growing in a alternating style.
Really cheap and works well.

Using this with promix soil easy mixing, no pPH'ing, really helps simplify the whole growing experience.

This stuff also comes with this guy that likes to talk about plants always available through email. ( I'm pretty sure it's AI but some the responses make me question that)

Message support before you buy and ask for a 30% discount. They will give it to you. After you buy always ask that dude for a 30% discount before you buy your next batch.

I am sure there is better stuff out there but this is cheap and easy and it works fairly well.

Here is a different tent I got going. She still has a few weeks left in veg. Need to build up those branches in the middle a lot more before she will be ready to flip.

Damn, that plant has tentacles! šŸ™
Yeah I let her grow fairly tall before I tied her down. Just did some training on her a few days ago. Cut off a lot of the foliage to open up the smaller bud sites in the middle. She might be the one stretches massively in flower. That's okay tho I have a dimmable light in that tent.

Not much left to do except make sure they are watered on time and the light is at the correct distance.

She got good air flow, good node spacing, I have been debating turning on the second light in the closet. I got a lot of head room so I think I could keep the ppfd at same level but I'm not sure if that big of a change to the lighting would be beneficial or not. Might stress them out, might make bigger buds? Idk.

She is filling in the gaps fairly quickly.

I've opted to leave the second light off, as in this stage of growth any unwanted stress can hinder growth at this crucial point in the plants life.

Anyways hope everyone is having a nice day.
