Yeah man its kind of confusing that it scattered around the plant but destroying 1 leaf at a time. I thought mites but no webbing seen. Then I thought maybe some kind of leaf hopper would make sense... I really don't know lolHopefully someone more knowledgable will drop in, because it looks like two completely different things to me: thrips and septoria.
I never saw thrips damage start as black spots, but the localized nature of the damage makes me think "pest."
Yes sir but only by the naked eye, I'll get out there with the microscope and have a peep.Have you checked the underside of the leaves? You might need a good magnifying glass. See if you can see any critters and get a photo.
I have been seeing a few little strange looking flies hanging around, and these small grasshopper looking things. I've ordered some neem oil but because it's not available here in Canada it's going to take a full month to get here. So I guess I'll just head down to the garden store and see what they have on the shelves, perhaps a bag of lady bugs. Thanks mateSomething is having dinner on your plants.
With spots like that you are looking for tiny critters that suck the juice from the leaves. That's where those spots/holes are coming from.
This is outside? Ladybugs! Ladybugs are awesome, but they don't hang around outside.
This could be beetles, any of a handful of different flies, caterpillars. Get a magnifying glass (really strong one) and look for them.
I wish that were the case. I'm losing 5+ leaves per day to these little mutantsThat's a pest that had a nibble and moved on. Probably prefers something else.
Food grade soil? Never heard of that.sprinkle DE on them. it works. make sure you get food grade. the rain will wash it off after a while. no matter what it is, DE works on anything with an exoskeleton
This is a great idea.Maybe we can all pitch in on a bug ID thread?
Does anyone have any good university or other scientific sites on bugs?
