Hi,

Yes, the plant is infested but I could not figure out what it is. Its been in a balconey where it recieves direct sun. The same problem hit my tomato plant also and I had to cut of a lot of leaves. But I could not cut off all so a few infested leaves remain. The newer leaves and suckers dont seem to be infested. And the fruits are fine too.

I think it may have started when they were in a place that recieved longer sun and the watering was a bit infrequent for a few days, I could not figure out if they really need water as the weather was still cooler. They are now in partial shade and its warming up.
