Hey all, a couple of pitchers came up with corkscrew tops on one of my Sarrs. It's an unknown from CalCarn. There are two other pitchers on the same plant that appear normal. I've looked for pests but found nothing. I gave everyone a good dose of Capt Jack's just in case I missed something.
These are early growth pitchers so maybe it's nothing to be concerned about.

Definitely looks like thrip damage, and they are very hard to spot. Keep treating with Captain Jack's weekly for a few weeks.
