I get damage that sounds very much like that, including the breaking vals.
I've been attributing it to softened water/calcium deficiency and two poorly
trained pl*cos.

Has anyone noticed that his symptoms point toward a potassium deficiency?

He looked on Chuck's page, and said that he didn't think it was K, because
the
holes aren't pinhole-sized -- even the smallest is much larger than that.

I asked him if the holes are in old leaves, new leaves, or both. That
should
help determine if it's K or not.

Are there any distorted leaves among the broad-leafed plants to go along
with those problems already described?...

He did say that his twisted Val leaves broke off altogether, because of
the
damage.

I'd sure like to see a picture of the damage.
