TheMooseZeus Posted October 20, 2018 I understand the yellow bubbles on the underside are glands for nectar Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MountainGoat Posted October 20, 2018 yeah, i think its an insect getting into the new growth. does the older leaves have the same issue, or just the new growth? Try eco-neem or some other water soluble neem oil... Leave the plants in the shade for a day after applying... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If its purely a cosmetic issue i dont need to treat it but if the plants health is at risk ill be right on it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MountainGoat Posted October 20, 2018 yeah pyrtheum should do the job. The plant will grow through it, but there'll be a small slow in growth rate... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oncewhywechange Posted October 20, 2018 Leave it alone, give it a good drink of seasol and powerfeed, Looks like it might be to wet aswell. they are tough as and over caring can knock them around. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I sprayed it a tiny bit and rain washed it off pretty quick. Just getting familiar with growing this gorgeous vine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
