here's the story so far.....
durban poison and hollands hope outdoor grow in raised bed 1.7m x 1.2m
planted germinated seeds directly in soil under glass cloches on 9th april 2009
soil mixture of sieved topsoil/8yr old horse manure/bought in compost/ about a kilo of each lime/bat guano/rock guano/bone meal
watered when top 2" soil felt dry

now a few of the plants,...some planted in the raised bed and one or two planted in composted pots have a quite shiny leaf and very wrinkly texture with some yellowing?...wrinkly appearence on new grow as well.....what's gannin doon????

they still under the glass mate??? magnifys the heat on ya babies maybe????





eta: its cos weve had some good sunshine lately i am saying that, doesnt look like a deficiency...

They look like they're still in pots.

If so, that soil mixture sounds a bit unpredictable if you haven't tried it before ...

Have you grown weed before using that set-up?

Is there anything you've recently changed?

It looks soil or pest related to me, but I can't back-that-up with any reason or evidence...

the problem seems to have developed with both potted plants and also those in the raised bed......the potted plants where grown in the green house while the raised bed ones where under cloches....they have outgrown their cloches now.all are outside....it baffles me??they are only 6 weeks old.

i had a couple of sats that started off like that indoors. like a mottled affect on the leaves and crinkled edges, they just grew out of it eventualy. it was pretty bizarre!!

good luck with it though dude!

I had something similar last year, didn't really work it out, but pests or a virus was my best guess. I noticed some similar crinkly leaves on a nearby bramble. Mine turned a sort of shiny metallic grey-brown in places as well. June is a bitch for pests and diseases.

Neem oil was my main defence.

e2a. I had it on Durban Poison as well, it's coming back to me now...affecting new growth the same as yours.

its p/h related , i wish i could remember which way it is now , i think its the p/h is too low rather than 2 high as it would then show white striations within the leaf then the leaf turns white and dies off , its caused mainly due to large p/h changes over a short period , a plant will happly live at a p/h of 4 but the speed it gets to 4 from say 7 is what makes the difference

it will happly grow out at the plant gets used to it wink1.gif

thanks for the input guys!! rofl.gif
ph related you say???,interesting!...i think that you could be on to something there....gonna ph test it this morning.....what's the remedy if it's low,can i put lime in the water?.......it's strange cos the worse affected plant is one that is potted rather than those in the raised bed.....the potted one has a soil mix of homebase compost/bit of horse manure/bat guana/rock guana and bone meal....but then there is kc33 in the raisd bed and potted ones and not affected at all....

just ph tested...it's like a knobbing car battery down there.....ranges from 4.8 to a max of 6 in places........all those wonderful nutrients locked up!!!!!!.how do i remedy that then....can i dissolve lime in the watering......regards the silverback

id say it was a nute defincency m8 although i had a similar prob a couple of crops back and they picked up after a wile good luck with them tho
silverback0_13
hi super-t.......you don't think it's a nute diff caused by the ph being to low???.nutrients locked...soil is sieved,with manure,bat and rock guana,bought in compost,bonemeal.thought it would be chock full of nutes.

Last year I looked at some type of Mosaic virus as a potential cause of this kind of thing (I remembered the name). I had exactly the same thing at the same time of year.

Haven't got any cannabis photos, but look at these photos of other plants with Mosaic virus:

Tobacco
Beet
Squash
Cowpea
Soybean
