Potato damage

    hi,

    My potato plants are showing some damage to the leaves.

    I've attached a photo of a typical plant. It's not widespread, about half the plants are showing this kind of damage. Also, new growth on some of the effected plants seems clear while others have new growth showing similar symptoms.

    I don't believe it's blight but i'm not sure what it is and how to treat it.

    Any ideas ?

    Cheers,
    SOP

    Looks like wind damage to me

    Thanks qzy, I think you may be correct. The plants are showing new growth with minimal damage and they are in an area that gets a tad windy. So, I guess all I need to do is keep an eye on them and put in a wind break if it returns.
