That could be it for real. I've watched him spray the plants with ice ass cold well water...Right during mid hot day...can't tell him anything tho...he's 73..And only grows outsideAnother factor is when i say βcoldβ is also if someone is using water from hose and its super cold too
Yes, it was in NY also, same time frame.Not sure where you are at, but there was in fact a mold going around in MI a couple years back that did just that. I saw it from a hand full of MI outdoor growers on RIU. I cant remember for the life of me what they determined it to be exactly, but I do remember it was some sort of mold. Not saying thats the issue your uncle is facing, but it sure looks just like what I saw in the MI outdoor thread.
I think I remember seeing alot of folks up north having an issue like that awhile back.His guess was some type of fungus..Said he's 100% positive there is no deficiencies..These are also strains he has grown multiple times and never seen it happen

I knew I'd read/ seen something like that not long back. Good to see I've not lost my mind yet. LolYes, it was in NY also, same time frame.
After a lil digging I found it:not arguing just shooting experience ( google disease or mold cannabis and tell me thereβs a pic of that) i wanna see this βmoldβ that makes ur plant turn purple on new growth topsβ¦β¦. Not sayings not possible but at any stage u give cold water on a plant or unstable cold weather will always do that.
been a northern OD grower for almost 20 years and thatβs def not a mold issue Iβve ever seen or seen online. Oh I seen people say they got disease or mold at end of season but itβs more of emviroment lockout on those factors so many of the time. fu gi is a major issue on defense and many issues can occur but to say itβs such without any fact is also critically wrong or a bad direction for IPM and/or knowing ur issue itselfβ¦

I remember a couple of guys putting up pics that one year..either '19 or '20.........and I even killed one of my own plants that seemed to have it........I initially thought it was some kind of rot.......so kill first and question later. As I remember it, guys grew thru it, at least for a while. There's pic's somewhere.After a lil digging I found it:
Google "purple top phytoplasma cannabis" and you will see plenty of examples that are an exact mirror of the symptoms that @HBZ farms uncle is experiencing. Seems to be mainly a North American issue in outdoor that has risen in occourance over the last 10 years or so.
