Hi all,

Just wanting a second opinion on the health of the leaf below:

It is only the bottom leaves and its on the side of the plant that is struggling because its not getting the full day of sun (paying the price on yield for stealth). Only concern is that I do have a bit of an aphid problem, as well as those little brown spiders, which I kill onsight as well as mist the plant at night (sometimes with pyrethium). Overall the plant is growing well and looks pretty healthy:

But any tips, thoughts would be greatly appreciated....

well if you are talking about spider mites and aphids, you might need more than just pyrethium to kill them.

I don't think they are spider mites because I can see the spiders, they are much larger than spider mites.

Going to buy some yellow sticky traps today to help get rid of the aphids/whiteflys as pyrethum only seems to do the job for a few days.

I was more just wanting a confirmation that the state of the shaded leaf I posted is due to a combination of insect damage/not getting enough sun... Hoping I am not missing anything...
