Thank you for all the suggestions everyone! ANOTHER pest I forgot to mention is white flies. They congregate on the leaves as SOON as that are open. The old leaves are COVERED on the bottom in old hatched egg shells. Anyone else had the problem? How to stop it? I’ve tried Castile soap in water sprayed on the bottom of the leaves (that is where they are), and it controls it for a little while but in a couple days there back. Thanks 👍
