Perform an investigation to examine plant shoots and leaves and gather first hand information of evidence of pathogens and insect pests.

What is a method/ procedure and equipment list for this experiment? I don't understand what we are meant to do

I didn't bother doing it as an experiment but i guess you could include magnifying glass and notepad as equipment and method could be something like 'find specimens of plants with disease' & 'examine whether it is insect damage or fungal/bacterial disease' & 'write down observations'

we just got some leaves that dawny mildew and snowy mildew.

we just cut them up (they were really thin and brittle) and had a look at them under the microscope.

Yeh my school didnt do this experiment

but generally i think they want some sort of observation under a magnifying glass looking for fungal growth, black spots and bite marks.
