Black Rainbow Posted November 4, 2018 What might be responsible for this damage, and how can I avoid it in the future? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheMooseZeus Posted November 4, 2018 Im no expert at all but fast growth or swelling due to too much water? It still looks super healthy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Black Rainbow Posted November 5, 2018 Cheers guys, I had suspected it was a little critter. Just haven't caught any in the act... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DualWieldRake Posted November 7, 2018 This is damage related to temperature fluctuations or UV It's obvious from the symmetrical notch 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Rainbow Posted November 7, 2018 Hmm, the damage did coincide with the spring warmth. Although I haven't had this issue in the past, even with more extreme weather changes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DualWieldRake Posted November 7, 2018 (edited) It may wants to pick up growth like TheMooseZeus mentioned, not having put up defences for harsh situations (i'd expect sunlight or uv seeing your temps) In this case it should "grow out of it" soon enough i guess Edited November 7, 2018 by DualWieldRake 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Black Rainbow Posted November 7, 2018 Yeah they look healthy AF so I'm not so concerned. Grunge is cooler than textbook perfection anyway. Scars for character! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flux Posted November 9, 2018 I noticed the same thing a few days ago and thought it was slugs...but being that one has this same v -formation and is only on the new growth tips...the too fast thing might be the issue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
