If spots begin to appear on the berry leaves, this indicates that something is wrong with the plant.
As a rule, we are talking about various diseases.
Therefore, it is necessary to correctly determine what kind of illness you have encountered, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, a landscape designer and agronomist.
What do the appearance of spots on strawberry leaves indicate?
Brown spot
Most often, summer residents who do not thin out their berry beds in a timely manner encounter the disease. It is easy to identify the disease: fairly large burgundy-colored spots appear on the leaves.
Anthracnose
This disease can be called extremely dangerous, as it threatens the life of the plant. At first, small spots or even dots of a reddish hue can be noticed on the leaves.
Afterwards they become darker in color as the disease progresses.
White spot
At first, you will notice small spots on the leaves. However, if you ignore the disease, they will become larger.
A characteristic sign of the disease is a white spot in the center of the affected part of the plant.
