Default Re: New Ae Ae - brown leaf spots upon arrival

I got a beautiful Logees DLF from Chong and it had one big, black spot and no other blemishes. Within a week, it had the same patterns as your plant. It was obvious to me that these were caused by peircing mouth parts of insects. I did find some snails on the plant, but these pin-pricks don't seem to be their MO. I looked under each leaf and found a short, square, moth type insect. I thought they were whiteflies at first, but these were much shorter, and greyish. Keep a sharp eye out. I treated my plant and the two leaves that emerged post-treatment are fine.
