Glad that its not erwinia, seemed like water soaked areas on the leaf thats why I was a bit worried. Did you mean that it may not survive because of the scale infestation or is there a chance for it to survive? Btw I havent actually used Acephate on this seedling since I got it, in fact I havent used any insecticides on it. I just soaked the seedling in water with little bit of dish soap to form bubbles and then let it dry and repotted it. I did order for imidacloprid granules which I got just today but I havent still used them on the seedling yet. So do I need to remove seedling from the media and just let it dry, wont the roots die?
