I've noticed something unusual with my Contender bush beans, and I'm really concerned. They seem off, and I'm trying to figure out what could be causing it. Any ideas?

It sounds like you're dealing with either spider mites or thrips. Both can cause damage to your plants, so it’s important to identify which one it is. Look for signs like mottled leaves, which can indicate a problem. You might want to do some research on how to spot these pests.
I noticed something similar with my beans before, and it turned out to be powdery mildew. An effective solution is mixing one tablespoon of baking soda with a gallon of water and using it as a spray on the affected areas. It can really help clear things up!
Good idea! I've used baking soda before, and it worked wonders for my plants. Just make sure to apply it regularly!
Yeah, I second that! Always check under the leaves too; you'll often find these little pests there.
