I have a specific question; Can you tell me why a plant after being put
out in the patch, Grows well but as the leaves develop they get yellow
spots that spread throughout the whole leave. The leave then turns grey
like newspaper and drops off. This happened for the first several leaves
and then stopped. Of course I lost the main leaf growth for the first several
feet along the main vine.
I watered very heavy during these problems and believe I may have
washed away whatever it was causing this problem.>
It happened to all my plants except a backup that was planted late in
the season.
