flakes away between your fingers. This is what
a chemical burn looks like. A nutrient problem
does not look burnt. A nutrient problem looks
like a cell collapse with discoloration. The
part may wither and die, but it should not look
burnt. That is major difference between a
chemical burn and a nutrient problem. In time
you should be able to tell the difference for
yourself.
Also check your pH. If your pH is not
right, then solve the pH problem before you go
and do anything else.
A) Look at your problem and quickly search for
any bugs. When you have completed this search,
eliminate any bug problems by using the advice
in the bug chapter. Also note the type of
attack to make sure that it is not a bug
problem AND is a nutrient problem, which can
happen. Do your leaves look sucked and dry? Do
you have any black dots on them like bugs? Try
to tell the difference between a bug attack and
a nutrient problem. Nutrient problems damage
the plant on a somewhat consistent level. Bug
attacks are less consistent in the damaged
generated. They leave damaged patches
everywhere on your plant.
If the problem seems to affects only the
lower portion of your plant and or a bit of the
middle then read B). If it is only effects the
top of your plant and the tips then you should
go to J). If the plant is covered with the
problem then go to F).
B) If your plant is in vegetative growth and
