I was just curious if Ken D. would be interested in adding a "Leaf Disorder" topic in the main menu this upcoming winter? Something with pictures of infected/deformed leaves and a brief description of the cause and remedy. Kind of like the photos in Don's books of injured leaves or the several photos of leaves that BP members post. I think it would be a great quick reference. Just a thought. Alot of work to do but it could be very helpful for growers that dont have Dons books or that come across a leaf problem that isnt listed in his books. It just got me thinking about it after reading all the posts on yellow spots on leaves and holes in leaves. I'd donate for your extra time Ken...

Gets my vote, I had a leaf problem this year that has solved it's self, however I wondered if I should be dumping the "dodgy" plants while the others are showing no signs of problems. Now I'm glad I didn't because the problem was somthing with the conditions, 2 leaves on 4 of my 5 plants failed to open up, I think the edges were scorched, Just glad it wasnt a virus! A nice clear reference of leaf problems could be the best thing for spotting these problems early and for solving them quickly. Top Idea!
