My cousin moved in the week of thanksgiving from Oklahoma.
She too is a dirt digger and had lots of plants
Even though the room she is living in at my house is full of light she needed to put 2 plants in my garden room.
with in days I noticed some strange webbing forming on her plants and now it is every where and leaves are dropping...
I purchased a spray that is supposed to kill every thing that it could be...however it has only killed the seedlings and small plants.

In the webs there are cream colored specks like tiny eggs...
HELP

If the underside of the leaves has spider web looking material it's probably spider mites.
Put the plants in the bathtub and let a cool gentle shower run on them for a few minutes. That will usually get rid of them.
Good Luck
