My newly grown pole beans have developed a series of white patches in the leaves- seem to have been there when the leaf was growing, so the sharply defined borders can be puckery. I have thought of leaf miners, but the patches are broad and not trails as I’ve seen in leaf miner damage in the past. Any ideas?

I just read that lambsquarters is a good trap plant to distract leaf miners. Although most damage shows a trail, I saw some online that did not.

Thanks to both of you- I have removed the damaged leaves and moved on to worrying about other things.
