Grow details. Indoor, 600 watt MH (25k Lux at plant tops) 18hrs on 6 hours off, 40-55 Rh, 67-81 F, Happy Frog potting soil 8 inch pots, filtered tap water (unknown ppm/ph) plants have been fed once with 3-0.6-0.6 1oz/gallon as a foliar spray and watered. Seeds were found sparingly in dispensary bud sold as Grapefruit OG. Seeds were soaked in water for 24hrs then placed into wet paper towel until germination. 5 out of 6 seeds germinated. Immediately after germination Grapefruit OG #4 showed signs of chlorophyll bleaching, twisting, leaf deformations, not to mention the main stalk growing sideways. Some of the other Grapefruits show minor mottling of the leaves, spots where the chloroplasts aren't functioning properly. Its growth is on par with its siblings. I've read all 80 pages of the Tobacco Mosiac Virus thread hoping to find a answer or a course of action. I have been giving the plants 325mg/Gallon aspirin 2x a week in case of virus or disease. I looked for bugs with a 60x scope and didn't find anything. Just incase I mixed up a slurry of diatomaceous earth and water and sprayed all the leaves (white spots on the leaves are DE not mites). I also top dusted soil with diatomaceous earth. Any ideas on the cause of the deformations? Should I cull the plant or continue with vegetation? The worst thing for me is if it's a virus. I have already seen some color deformation on some non-related plants in the same room but nothing like #4 is displaying. I was planning on breeding its siblings if I can find a keeper. The same pictures can be viewed under my album Grapefruit OG. Thanks for any help, Koko.
