yup they are right next to/under the shed, thats what i mean though when i say the shed looks similar to the mealies i have, i know mine are not aphids but i will take a pic tomorrow if i can rind them, it has been raining for 2 days straight now so some might have been washed off
It rained a lot yesterday, and the flecks of white are gone. Maybe it was really pollen? I'm cautiously optimistic, and will check the plants in the mini-bog for signs of damage.
also with as little as is known about the imidicloprid and it's long term effects on the environment, that is in the bayer systemic, I have had very good results with it and if carefully applied.....don't be scared of the "hard stuff", it works.
Do you have a linden or other flowering tree over or next to your bog at all? Lindens drop a tragic amount of sticky pollen specs. that can easily blow around for a short distance.
I had this grainy white stuff getting on my cephalotus that for a while I thought was mold. Turns out it was sodium from bricks I use to hold the water tray up inside the tank. Once I moved the plants to another tank the problem went away and I confirmed a sodium buildup.
Not saying that's it, but it could be something similar. Sodium hurts plants, so I hope you don't have that issue like I did.
