Farming- a bunch of catastrophies that result in a lifestyle

Well, im still kinda new, but i know from reading here that if your soil temp is below 60 (?) that the nitrogen gets tied up in the soil, also that during long cloudy periods they dont feed as much. Can you post a link to a pic? There are alot of knowledgable people here who can help w a pic to look at.

Cold soil, it will be fine when it warms up.

dealing with same thing here. wet cool soil. I pulled my plant out and made a raised mound and put in a back up...so much for soil heating cables...

If ya can use the lights ya have for the nice weather we been having. 6400 T-5's bulbs sunshine ones work great along with the heat cables or move ta Cali.
good luck

I have found that 1 TBL SPN of epsom salts can help in one gallon of water around the base.....

roger-

Can you post a picture? Your description of yellow spots and a leaf that is completely yellow could indicate two different potential causes. Also, where these leaves are located on the plant and at what stage of development they are in can also play a factor.

Pictures can be worth a 1,000 words;-)
