TSWV and ?

JimM_SC · June 1, 2012

I know I have TSWV and remove plants as soon as the infection is noticed. I also seem to have something in addition. This starts as a bronzing of the leaves and then turns darker. Can anyone ID this? Pic attached.
Thanks so much,
Jim

I tried to zoom in on the leaves because it looks as if there might be some eggs on them. Check the leaves, particularly the undersides. I had a thrips problem, but did not see the damage clearly until I took pictures of the leaves with my digital camera and zoomed in on them. Then, I could see that insects had eaten layers off the leaves.
