Rose leaves turning brown but not drying or dying..
Comments (1)They appear to have suffered a freeze to me. It isn't surprising your tree rose foliage isn't affected. Cold air sinks, pooling at the lowest levels. The coldest air could have been below the head of the standard where the lower foliage would have suffered the cold damage. It could also be the genetic difference in cold hardiness of the foliage between the variety shown and that budded to the tree, or both. The leaves are softer, thinner and more susceptible to freeze damage at higher temps than the canes. Kim...See MoreWhy is my satsuma mandarin leaves turning brown in a weird way?
Comments (10)Just to let you know again, spider mites can't be seen by your normal eyesight. They're microscopic! University of Florida describes them as 1/50th inch long. The female is 0.4 millimeters. You can't "see" spider mites, literally! But just because you cannot see them with your plain eyeballs, doesn't mean it's not on your plant. Your leaves show the most common spider mite symptom. I would advise you not to ignore the very high likelihood of spider mites on your plant. Your organocide will only kill adult bugs on contact but any eggs that are on your plant will not be affected. You'll have to keep spraying until you take down every last bug going through their adult phase...See MoreWhy is my container plant leaves turning brown in the edges
Comments (4)how are you applying the fert.. and are you doing it in sun ... looks like fert may have washed down the leaf.. and puddled at leaf ends.. and maybe got burned ... i dont see any doom.. and i surely see no reason to destroy it all ... petunia need to be cut back a couple times during the season... when they start getting leggy ... i see no reason to do it too soon.. just because of a few brown leaf tips ... i also wonder about a cold event.. since you admit you planted too early ... and a minor cold snap.. may have caused what you see .. and its just showing now .... it never hurts to tell us where you are .. big city name ... zone alone is not good enough ... water when the pot needs water ... which in cool spring should not be very often ... you might be overwatering ... insert finger.. and FIND OUT ... and water when it needs it ... come the heat of summer.. more water will probably be needed ... but not right now ... also.. i see some seed pods forming.. you need to deadhead the pet's frequently ... to keep bloom going... ken...See MoreWhy are the leaves on my variagated monstera turning brown?
Comments (25)Suzanne - are you using a tell to monitor moisture levels deep in the pot instead of a finger stuck in the top inch or so of the medium? Did you flush the soil to 'reset' the level of dissolved solids (salts) in the medium? Are you fertilizing regularly, based on the number of times you've watered to beyond the point of complete soil saturation? We should have some idea of where you live, as that will be taken into consideration when giving advice, and you'll get advice less general. Important to plants is their LCP, 'light compensation point'. Plants are at their LCP when they are creating as much food (plants make their own food during photosynthesis) as they are using/ burning during respiration. A plant can only grow when it is making more food than it is using. If they are incapable of functioning well enough to reach their LCP, the trend is toward loss of viability, so the trend must be turned around before it exhausts all energy reserves and dies. If your plant is not growing, it is very near it's LCP or on the wrong side of it. Giving it more light and favorable temps, monitoring moisture levels to avoid over-watering, and fertilizing on a regular basis with an appropriate fertilizer is where you'll gain the most traction, but sometimes a pathogen or insect herbivory undoes your good work. More later. I'll wait to see what your reply is, or if you reply. Looks like the weatherman was wrong today and I have some weather-related chores I need to attend to. Al...See Moredoriswk
