I found a pale yellow stippled effect on many of the leaves on my blackberry plants, and some small leaping insects
under the leaves, can you advise please?
The problem is leaf
hoppers.
These wingless nymphs feed under the leaves on the sap, resulting in the bleached spots.
As they mature, their wings
gradually develop and they become adult insects.
When disturbed they make the characteristic short leaping flights, hence their
name.
Spray under the leaves with a suitable insecticide.
