Got any pics btw?
Rob said:I agree with bent....look closely for aphids
elequin said:Weird distorted leaves, shrivelled leaves, etc. I may take some pics tomorrow to show off the ones that are doing well and inquire about the possible reason the others aren't.

AlabamaJack said:Eric...check out the thread "Potawie needs help"....there are several of us experiencing the shrivelled leaves and can't figure out what it is...he has a pic of one of his plants there...I have the same thing going on with some of my plants too...
AlabamaJack said:Safer Soap...insecticidal soap...get it at walmart or your local nursery..coat the plant good and make sure you get under EACH leaf, then give the new growth a shot from the top...I use a 2 gallon pressurized sprayer with the cone attachment in it...apply safer soap at the rate of 2.5 oz per gallon....then reapply about 7-10 days later to get all the hatchlings that came out after you sprayed the first time..
I am just getting ready to go treat a spot infection right now...
later...
AlabamaJack said:if you really want to get at them, I think you can add pyrethrin to the solution too...seems I read that somewhere...
