Re: Leaf Problems
Mark,
I would also suggest checking very carefully for mites. They can cause
damage that sounds like that. Spraying for them is a major pain, because
you have to carefully spray the UNDERSIDE of each leaf. My plants two years
ago had some kind of mite that you couldn't really see - they just looked
like a purplish-grayish dust on the underside of the leaves. But after I
sprayed all the undersides with a good miticide, the problem disappeared.
Of course the existing damage didn't go away, but the new leaves that came
on were okay.
Good luck,
Beth
