Eggs, Mites or Fungus?


Vanilla Gorilla

Recommended Posts

Have spotted a leaf issue on just a couple of leaves, unidentified as yet but could be Eggs, Mites or Fungus,

I put them under my USB microscope (see attached images)

but i don't see any movement. Has anyone got any ideas what this could be,

and what to do about it?

Most insects hide on the underside of leaves,

that also tends to be where they lay there eggs.

 

Have a look at the other side of the leaves if you've still got them.

Possibly caused by water droplets on leaves

the images taken are from the underside and top, don't look like insects though. coud be just spot discolouration, but hard to identify.

@Vanilla Gorillawhat software do you use with your usb scope mate ?

 

I've no idea what it is but if it were me I'd be giving then a spray of SB Plant Invigorator.

Does not look like a pest more like a bit of water damage or other physical damage.

thanks, yes, i think youre right, i don't thinks it's much to worry about.

The software i use is Photobooth on an iMac, cant seem to find any specific Mac compatible USB Microscope software, they are all outdated online as im using OsX Big Sur and Apple have not done anybody any favours by making all the older software incompatible.
