Good day all my plants have been showing what I think is mosaic disease or cold damage I'm not 100% sure where I am Britain the temp is at 5C-2C not hit the minuses yet, should I harvest what I have left on my plants now are they salvageable, a lot are either light green or dark green and they are golden Virginia and burly any suggestions would be great pics attached of the damaged leaves

A part of the damage I think is the hard wind.
I have chosen some fast strains ..not all strains manege to ripens ..so all my harvest is done in august when the temps are better. I would try pick the light green ..dry them and stack them inside under a towel and hope they yellow then dry them.

Thank you, I've harvested light green and some of the darker damaged green ones, gonna use the dark green to experiment with currently got some green leaves in a steamer on the hop to see if that will change colour and see how it affects it's taste
