I have posted a few photos on my diary to see if you pros can diagnose my issue. I the entire plant looks great, its just the first handful of older leaves that are looking sick. I'm thinking its a combo of them being heavily used up but a ton of foliar feeding, and a pretty heavy pesticide routine. the high 90's tejas heat likely isn't helping.

spray damage can happen. but older leaves do get brittle and tend to die off over time. might want to slow down your spray routine just a tad. it has helped me.

so would you go strictly drench method for a while? I'm assuming i mix things the same way as if I were going to foliar spray, and just drench the soil around the plant then water in? or this should probably be moved to the newbie section! I'm reading over all these Fert programs and schedules. trying to follow them as close as possible but my results are looking to me like I'm doing more harm than good. thinking about misting system to try to combat the 100 degree all day sun
