I can't take a picture, the problem is so small I had to use a magnifying glass. There are no aphids yet or fungus that I can see. Could it possibly be spider mites? I know my drawing is'nt the best. This rose has been leafing out for about 3/4 weeks. The leaves(past experince) should not look like this.
Indentation on the top of the leaf with a matching pimple on the underside. Where the leaf is curled(edge) on the under side, I found very mico circles which look like very tiny drops of water that dried. Any one got a clue or is it to soon?
Thanks for any help

Curling leaves and bumps on the young leaves can be early-stage powdery mildew--at first the white stuff is not obvious.

Don't get too much powdery mildew here, but then anything is possible. Black spot, silvery leaf is common after monsoon and then theres the Thrips. We did get a couple of good rains about 2 wks ago and of course the weather has been real screwy. Got snow 3weeks ago and now the day temp is in the mid 70.
I will go ahead a spray for mildew just to be on the safe side. If you can think of any thing else please let me know. Thanks
