@jezra In the greenhouse they had always spider mites and then mildew like disease on all leaves. They became yelkow and dry. Flowers and fruits fell off. When the plants had recovered with new leaves and flowers the summer was coming to its end. Hapoened every year.
This year the eggplant is outdoor before a sunny wall at a terribly hot place. Seems tongo well so far. -

@morph I'm a bit jealous, my eggplant is having an issue with powdery mildew, and is not doing well. -

@springdiesel It should make a decent moussaka. :)

But also so smooth and shiny. Almost hypnotic!

@jezra
P.S. I discovered the mites on an overwintered chili plant instead as they find no eggplant. Same damage on the plant. It's seperated now. The greenhouse id full of jalapeños and hot peppers. 😬
With eggplants in the greenhouse ... no mites on the peppers.
