Hi black spots and brown veins any ideas.

[LazyBaba]

Hi everybody new to this forum just like to say hello from Northeast england.Just check my leaves and noticed a gold dollar looking a bit poorly and contorted a little bit at the top leaves and some of the lower leaves have this browning of the veins and a strange mottling on the underside as the photos .Any ideas as it looks to be spreading to the plant next door.Any help would be really appreciated.Should I prime now?

Welcome to the forum. Be sure to read the New Growers' FAQ, and scan for topics of interest in our Index of Key Forum Threads. Both are linked in the menu bar. Feel free to introduce yourself in the Introduce Yourself forum.

From the limited photos, it may be Tobacco Vein Mottling Virus. A few examples are here:

Agricultural Systems : Tobacco

[Scroll down to TVMV.]

Since TVMV is often spread by aphids, controlling your aphids may reduce or eliminate the spread. It's harmless to humans, but does reduce leaf quality and yield.

Without a photo of entire leaves and whole plants, it's difficult to tell if they are ready to prime.

All the dot marks are underneath the leaf whilst some of the vein marks can be seen on the top.You can also see browning in the leaf stem right were the leaf veining is.hhhmmm confused cant find any internet info thats the same..

Lacking a view of the tips of the leaves (slight yellowing indicates maturity), the rugose appearance of all the leaves in the single, whole plant photo suggest that the plant could be stalk-harvested, and air-cured.
