Grown this plant once already to completion, had odd leaf growth from seed and grew out of it mostly, now a clone of the original mother plant I see this.

I don't want to have to kill this plant but I will if I have to. Im transferring transferring this in the next day if it isn't, I think this may be from soil compaction or maybe root aphids or Fungus Gnats, ive got gnats, I'm worried if I have tmv I'll have to sterilize everything.

If you have USB microscope check the bottom of a really bad leaf especially towards the center of each finger.

I'm thinking about top dressing in a few days with Lactic acid bacteria if its pest/fungal or bacterial in origin, this was the most potent plant in a 50 pheno hunt, I've got hundreds more of its relatives going now to select from and don't want contamination if it is tmv.

This is what I had. Those are secondary veins. Not sure if they would be visible unless magnified more. I put lens of microscope right on the leaf than focus. I think HLVD is much more prevalent. I was thinking about offering a service for testing but equipment is expensive. I have TMV kit in fridge from 10 years ago from Agdia. People thought they had it back then and was probably early cases of HLVD. These are spider mites. Yellow circles are eggs about to hatch, clear are just layed. I grow in coco indoors so no experience with pests in soil except fungus gnats. Good luck.

I don't have spider mites, I've sterilized by area with bleach and only one plant appears to show these symptoms, including a clone of the same pheno.
