Ok now I’m worried...

Evil Ken · 07-26-2018, 12:25 AM

So my 3 musas have been developing brown or non pigmented patches on the cigar leaves. I’ve posted a few times about it...

Now one of the newer leaves looks terrible. Now we have had some serious heat lately so I’m assuming whatever trauma it experienced as a cigar leaf made it more vulnerable to said heat. I’m now also experiencing lower leaves falling down completely.

I have a blue java in the same area that is very healthy. So I’m perplexed as to what’s going on...

Any insight would be extremely appreciated!!!

Sorry I’m really having trouble adding photos. I swear I think I’m doing it right. My apologies.

Well Ken, you got the photo uploaded so congratulations.

So next, click on your photo. Down at the bottom you'll see three labeled text boxes. Your job is to copy the code in the box for "bulletin boards" and then paste it in the post you want. Copying that code is easily done on a desktop or tablet but can be difficult on a smart phone. Good luck!

The new leaf is paper thin and flimsy. While the others are more robust like leather. I’ve also noticed they’ve ceased transpiration in the mornings.

They were all so healthy. I don’t know what’s going on.

Nothing wrong. It is all due to rapid growth. The new growth pushes so fast it doesn’t completely harden off and gets sunburn. The new leaf is usually a lighter color and flimsy. They often get broken by the wind. Totally normal. Plant still looks ok. You can cut back on watering a little and it will correct itself. Nothing wrong though!
