Hi guys,
I have my plant growing in "living soil" (I used Buildasoil 3.0).
I have a fungus gnat infestation I've been trying to eradicate, so far I've applied BTI a few times, and nematodes twice. It hasn't been too long since the applications, so I'm still hopeful it'll work. Oh, I also have a butt load of sticky traps everywhere lol.
Ok, so far the plant has been looking very healthy. All of the sudden today I noticed, however, one of the fan leaves discoloring.
Before the discoloration, I had just applied the nematodes (about 2 days before the discoloration) and it was pretty heavy watering. So, I have a suspension it's from over-watering.
However, I've also recently begun scrogging it, and that forced me to start putting some pressure on the main vine (I didn't want to top it). The plant has been bending very well, but the place where I hooked onto the stem to start training it is exactly the spot where the discolored leaf was--so perhaps this could be the culprit?
Thoughts? I went ahead and pruned the leaf (is that recommended?). The discoloration does NOT rub off. When I looked under a magnifying glass, it looks like little tiny orange pimples.
I attached three photos: one with the leaf on the plant. One of the front of the leaf after pruned and one of the back of the leaf after pruned.
Thanks for any insight!!
