Hi Bob, Hi Gary, Hi Richard,
Thank you all for your intervention.
Conditions here are not that much hard: few days 40C, winds less than
50km/h.
My opinion on the reason of growing tip loss was rather a supposition
and not a real observation.
Now that all stress the water deficiency reason and looking the leaf
structure I am easily convinced that sequoia may have a huge amount of
water loss by transpiration during summer and this may be the reason of
some parts of the plant more weak.
I am convinced that supplement watering and mulching will solve my
problem and this eases me as if I had found the medicine to a major
illness of a relative.
Thank you all for your contribution.
Regards.
