Leaf Problems

13 years ago

Hi Everyone,

Until now, I had managed to avoid most of the bug-related issues that I saw here on the forum. But now, it seems like I have a problem. Some of the leaves on a few of my plants have brown spots on them. Here is a picture. Any thoughts on what it might be? The tips look normal from what I can tell, but the older leaves seem bothered.

There does appear to be some stress. Its hard to say for sure but it could be insect related looking at the leaves in the background.

IMO a nice spray down of neem oil plus being removed from long exposure to direct sunlight to prevent oil induced burning would be the first thing to do.

My leaves look the same way this year. I have alot of spots and sunburn on them. They are in the same location as last year but oh well
