A little more from CullenofAdelaid when not in the fray. A tragic on two levels: Gardening and Cooking, with welcome interruptions from family and the wonder that is the world and its people.

Mites
Mites. This speckling of the leaves is it. Malcolm Campbell helped me confirm it this morning, They've been everywhere this season - stone fruit, roses, tomatoes. The low impact way is natrasoap, medium is confidor. Kelthane is the miticide, and I thought it was the one chemical I didn't have, then I found a bottle of miticide wiith the same active ingredient (Dicofol) in it. So this season I think I'll be going with the sledgehammer. A bit of a shame.
