Odd Plant Burn Pattern (Some Old Leaves Have Minimal Damage)

Another layer of complexity to the observed issue is that some older leaves seems to be “missed” by the margin leaf burn. Many who look at the leaf burn may agree that it looks like spray damage. However, seeing several older leaves showing minimal damage only adds to the confusion.

In addition to this most spray products are applied from the outer portions of the plant inward which would suggest the leaves near the outside would get more damage than those inside of the structure, but the issue severity is just the opposite.

Also, in general a leaf does not get “missed” so the wide spread, but at the same time in areas spotty appearance of the leaf wilting has led to the causing being inconclusive based on field diagnosis. So, a sample will be brought to a professional lab to see what they may be able to culture.
