    I took a leaf into a nursery and showed them. They said it was a wormy thing and sold me an ensyme that would kill the wormy thing when it ate it. Never could see any bug of any kind. The only leaves curled are new ones and they curl ul up and look a bit deformed. The mature leaves are absolutly perfect and beautiful. New leaves are still curling 5 days after the ensyme spray. I have been googling grapevine leaf curl and nothing looked like it until I found the picture in this thread. Wow! Exactly. Finally. Anyway I may be watering too much. I've been trying to keep the marigolds alive that I planted around it to discourage bugs. (Maybe a stupid idea.) So should I get some phosferous, OR I did spray "RAID Flying Insect" around it for the white flies that I think are starting? I don't see white fly damage yet. The phosferous deficiency and the insecticide were the two possibilities mentioned in that thread. No herbicides around.Thanks
