This'll be the last one. I promise. I don't want you all hiding under your
beds in fear.

I think its a potinara..... Pot. Strawberry Dacquiri Tested clean. No
virus.

That leaf looks like it got burned. Possible?

Thanks for the 2 sets, Kathy. I always get the shivers at the thoughts of
viruses. I have several thousand plants and there's no way to use a new
blade for each cut. I spray & soak in Physan, dip blades in saturated sodium
triphosphate between live cuts and try to keep a clean house. But you've
seen how I grow in tiers and there's no way to totally prevent a virus in my
environment. You've done a great service to help us see some of the things
we should watch out for (without spending all the money you did - thanks!).
But you've also put it in perspective with the clean pics. Maybe my
collection will last a little longer. Thanks.

What virus testing method is used there Kathy?
We have an ELISA test service available in Tasmania. However, I believe the
scientists regard it as only 75% accurate. Costs a bit too if you have
sufficient leaves to test. So I simply burn anything with definite symptoms
unless its a valuable or rare / endangered plant.
