Can antone definatively tell me what these spots are? I always assumed that they were from slug/snail's sucking the juice out of the leaves, but now I'm starting to wonder if it could be a disease of some sort? leaf spot, blight etc...?

If you cant see from the pics there are circles expanding outwards from the middle of the affected area, like how a tree has rings. The color is white grayish almost the color of ash. Some of the spots have holes in the very center.

Thanks!

bump, pic works now!

yeah ive seen the gooey trails on the plants and parts that definately been eaten by slug/snails, but these spots are different? They look as something sucked just the juices out of the leaf, but not actually eating any plant material?

definately not water marks.

thanks guys, hope someone can pin this one!

Humm, I'm just starting to get familiar with pests and diseases, but I really dont think these spots are from mites? The spots are pretty big, about the size of a cigarette burn, and to my understanding mites leave very tiny spots the size of pinholes?

I appreciate the input Bluemoonshine...thanks. Has anybody ever seen these type of spots before? I'm researching everything and anything but I cant find anything similar looking to these spots? My gut is tellin me its from slug/snails, but I dont wanna find out its some sort of disease or somethin thats gonna kill the whole plant!

C'mon I know one of you guys have seen this before!

Thanks again, peace

Heres my 2 cents. Either you have dropped some sort of chemical on them or could be a water issue. How much water and what is the water source ?? Note the yellow color around the edge of the leaves.

It looks kind of like nute burn. I had the same problem when I went to water my plants, some of the water splashed onto my leaves and the result was similar to yours. Are the effected leaves on the bottom of the plant? Mild nute burn tends to start at the lower fan leaves and radiate upwards....in my humble experience of course.

Thanks to all that have posted

Definately not bird poo, I know what bird poo looks like! haha

I dont think it could be from splashing nutes on it cause the spots are also on the very top leaves wich are about 6 foot?

I guess water droplets? Although that seems pretty extreme? wont rule it out yet though.

Last night I remember talking to fdd awhile ago about BT caterpillar spray overdose, so maybe I'll see if he can help out?

I'll try and put up some better/closer pics

Thanks again! Peace
