Bower, thank you so much for your advice! I already feel better knowing those nasty leaves are no longer attached to my plants. Timing is definitely everything it seems. I hope I didn't wait too long to sanitize. :no:

The weather here has been soooo wet and humid and I think that has definitely played a part in this. I also think the soil has been too wet and I wonder if that could also be part of the problem? All I know is I am crossing my fingers!

Thank goodness you have those spiders around! It sounds like they are good garden helpers. And yes, I can see how not taking the affected leaves off immediately can cause anything to spread very quickly... I hope I will be lucky enough to get some good bugs in and whatever this is out! Thank you for the well garden wishes! :)
