Each photo is a different plant but they all came from the same farm. Hadn’t heard of mosaic virus until a few mins ago when I imaged searched on google… is there anything I can do?? Or should I rip them up?! I’ll be sad if they have to go I was looking forward to seeing them bloom 😭

This is an automatic reminder regarding r/dahlias Rule 3:
When reasonable*, posters should make a good-faith effort to identify which variety/varieties are shown in their photo(s). If you don’t know for certain, please say so. Someone will usually know!
*Common-sense exceptions to this rule will be honored, such as if the photo does not contain a blossom, or if your photo contains large volumes (such as in wide field shots).
If you’ve already done this, thank you! No further action required.
If not, please add a reply to this comment and confirm if you know the name of your dahlia variety/varieties shown in the photo(s). Alternately, if you’re uncertain of the variety name(s), it’s ok to say that, too.

If it were me plant one and plant four would be out immediately in the garbage (not compost). Those zigzags on the first and circles on the fourth scream virus to me.
I’ve never seen anything like two before, and three looks normal to me, it’s veins aren’t lightened like I’d expect with virus, might be slight nutrient deficiency on that one.
