Does anyone know what this is on my beetroot plants? #help #advice
No sorry @lewis8232 but is it like a coating of something, or has the leaf moldered away from touching the ground maybe?
Could be powdery mildew?
@Mikekally The leaf was up in the air 🤔
..it looks like beetroot leaf miner... a grub that gets between the leaf layers and eats it... leaving the empty leaf layers..
@ukjohnny Oh 😭 Is there anyway to get rid of it?
..yes turn the leaf over and you will see the little grub in the leaf (looks like a black dot near the edge of what's been eaten) and squash it or simply remove the whole leaf
@ukjohnny Thanks 😄
Beets have germinated!
