Scrappy white patches on basil and coriander
« on: June 01, 2013, 14:41 »
I have some basil and coriander that I grew from seed in the kitchen window. They have developed very unhealthy scrappy grey-white patches all over the leaves. Some of the basil have shrivelled and gone wispy. Not only am I cursed with damping off disease I now have this  :(

Does anyone know what it could be ?

Any chance of a piccie?

Might be mildew but don't want to diagnose without seeing it.
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

No, it's not mildew as I know what that looks like. Isn't a mould, it's embedded in the leaf.

did the leaves get splashed and then get strong sunlight on them?

I think they possibly did as they are in the kitchen window where the light comes in strong early on. I now water from the tray underneath them.

Thanks.
