toxicity or deficiency?
Attachment 292616Attachment 292615
hey guys I know yer sposed to cut and paste the form and I tried and failed - so I'll try to give the pertinent details.
I have 6 plants, all planted in the local store's mix and amended to subcool's super soil recipe. of the six, my tangerine dream is struggling
badly, and a couple of my others are starting to exhibit the same symptoms.
they went into (clay) ground in early may without incident, and were doing fine until we got a couple of nights in the low 30's. a month later, the TD hasn't bounced back and I'm ready to pull it out and replace if it's really that cold sensitive.
I think what I have is either a deficiency from lockout(too much P?) or a toxicity from the hard well water. the water has a ph of 7, and isn't laden with sodium but is loaded with calcium. the plants have received only well and rain water, no liquid nutes.
the new leaves are coming out droopy, curled up on the edges, and pale. there is also some purpling on the new growth and upper stems. I'm super confident that it's not a macro nutrient deficiency, and am thinking it's a calcium or magnesium issue - but I don't know which direction.
does anybody recognize this? do I need an r/o system? any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.hoonry Reviewed by hoonry on . toxicity or deficiency? 292616292615 hey guys I know yer sposed to cut and paste the form and I tried and failed - so I'll try to give the pertinent details.
