zeedubbya Posted December 12, 2017 Posted December 12, 2017 Has anyone ever seen a mark like this on a wrapper before. I have seen thousands of green spots (frog eyes, water spots) on wrappers, but this is maybe something different. Seems almost like a stamp or something? I’ve already ruled out plume (aka mold) and mold too. Thanks for any help. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
99call Posted December 12, 2017 Posted December 12, 2017 Looks like like some stained hessian has been in contact, with it

CrankYanker Posted December 12, 2017 Posted December 12, 2017 I will check mine when I get home to see if I have something similar on any of the ones we split.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk I see where your confusion could be! Haha. Forgot I had put them in an old RoboT box and I see it in the background there. I’m sure it will get smoked at some point. Just so no one misunderstands this is not meant as a public complaint. In fact I think it’s pretty fascinating. I really appreciate the split from@crankyanker. With as many cigars as El Prez sees if he hasn’t seen it before it sounds like we might never know. Maybe I should send it back in for scientific analysis...! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
IanMcLean68 Posted December 12, 2017 Posted December 12, 2017 Maybe the conspiracy theorists are right after-all. Looks like a disguised reptilian cigar to me

earthson Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 In all seriousness, the green looks to be part of the wrapper, correct? Or is it something stuck to the leaf? I would guess it's a water spot from where the shade cloth was drooping and resting against the leaf. Smoke it and see if you start tripping. 1 1

It looks like it was laying against a grid or something like you mentioned. I’m not scared—I’ll let you know how the trip goes...Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

IanMcLean68 Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 It's a hologram Captain. Might I say, incomplete.
Fugu Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 Lilkely something warm or hot having touched the leaf during curing before reaching the yellow stage. By that chlorophyll became fixated. Or it happened perhaps already during transport from field to barn, e.g. a bloke dropping his cigar onto the cloth-covered transport basket or the like. The pattern is a little weird, indeed. Even weirder that the roller obviously didn't give a hoot.... Could've easily been avoided by shifting and rerolling the wrapper leaf just a little bit. It's not as if it sits in the middle of the stick... 1
canadianbeaver Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 @Fugu seems to make sense. Such a grid or metal screen pattern from the leaf processing stage. Strange and part of the hand made thing process perhaps, but missed by quality control? Tough smokers would smoke it perhaps lol. CB.
luv2fly Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 Power through man!! Seriously, very interesting. Never seen that before. The Goo makes sense to me as well. Good news is that it is at the head. Let us know how it smokes.
cigaraholic Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 Looks like the checkerboard frog piss plume I’ve heard so much about ?
ElPuro Posted December 14, 2017 Posted December 14, 2017 I've seen that before. I believe it's called "chloroformous fibrillatorous," an abnormal condition of the cellular structures of the leaf. At least that's what the botanist inside my head came up with. Don't trust him myself. ?
