I've seen it to some extent every year in this one area, but have had other growers in the town tell me they've had a bit of it here and there. It's purple spots and around the spots the leaves get all wrinkly, twisted and mutated looking. It seems to attract mold when the finished buds are dry and I don't smoke buds that have a lot of it. Neem oil has seemed to help a little but it doesn't completely cure it. Really infected plants are mutated from head to toe. I've used different genetics every year so it's not just a mutant strain. Affected plant always have it on growing tips. With no further adieu heres the pics: :detective1:
Unlike every other poster I will maturely accept that I can't define the problem in your pictures.
However, if it is a disease or mold or fungus or any living thing I may have a simple solution (probably not, don't get your hopes up)

"The active ingredient in garlic is allicin. Allicin is a potent antimicrobial as well as an antifungal. It can kill bacteria, viruses and fungi. "

Except for the silly notion that you can "kill" viruses, the above statement is correct. That being said, perhaps you can remove said "infected area" with the help of garlic's Allicin. Simply crushing the cells of a garlic clove will release this antimicrobial which you can manipulate at your will.
