Have a white kin 60 DAP. I noticed 5 or 6 spots about the size of a quarter.The same color as a bruise on a person (blue/green) The spots are not soft. Any ideas . It is not dye off my blanket cover as it is pink. (yeah I said Pink)

Got that picture up, yet?!? Have you had any vine or stump rot? My 845 O'Brian '13 did something that sounds similar last year. It was not good. Watch closely, If they appear to darken or get larger, then yes it's over. Good luck!

I did have a bit of rot on the the vine about a foot from the kin. But I got it fixed and it has dried up quite nicely. I will get a picture.

I tried to wipe it off with some rubbing alcohol as I figured it was just on the surface, but it didn't do anything.

Yeah!!!!! Your going to be fine!!! Mark is pretty much on point. Looks like a color pigment and nothing to sweat! I'd take a picture again in a week if you think it is growing strangely!

nothing to worry about, the green/blue are just color variations. the tiny brown specks could be overspray from something you sprayed or bug bites or just more color variations, they will be fine.

Good Luck
