| Hello,
Lately my edulis has had quite a lot of yellow leaves and stems. I was wondering what to do? It has lots of unripe-ripening fruit and lots have already fallen off but now with yellowing leaves should I pick some fruit? thanks for any help |

| Don't pick it till it falls off. (I know I know I never listen either..) As for the plant... Something's wrong. Spider mites? Other bugs? Too hot? Too dry? It's unhapy- but doesn't really sound like a fertilizer problem.. Then again I'm not the expert.. But I'd suspect bugs myself. |

| YES! I agree with you i found these weird white bugs with fluf around them i think they we mites. |

| So Plummy, did you get rid of the mites? Is the plant OK now? I have an edulis as well whose leaves (all of them) are misshapen, curled, crinkled. No bugs, though. What should I do to fix that? |

| Bugs with white fluff around them sound like meally bug. They usually infest the roots as well. |
