Let's kick this off with a picture of a little bugger who could have been munching on my leaves, and who's offspring may have/ still be eating my roots. I noticed some damage on leaves ( looked like slices in leaves missing bites and what looked like ph burn, but no obvious mite thrip or gnat 'infestation'. Treat room and plants with py spray, no avail, diatomaceous earth, no avail. Decided to bleach floor and put a new white plastic floor covering down over the old black floor, anyways when doing this shifted all five plants to one side of the room laid half the sheet, moved them back and put other side down... Went to move the first pot back into it's normal spot, and BOOMimage.jpgimage.jpg Was like the scene out mummy, flipping scarab beetle gonna crawl under my skin haha. Anyways he's a called a vine Weevle, don't know where it came from but still getting mutated leaves, patches so don't know if there more or other issue. Just thought I'd share this mad one with you's, peace.

your standard vine weevil, nor a great hassle in summer, but watch out for the worms in fall and winter they hatch out in spring and demolish roots ...

for that reason you got just one of these I suggest trashing your soil once you have harvested
