I had the same exact problem my second year of growing basjoos. On 2 particular TC clones I bought that year they did a really sub-par job growing during the summer. Narrow leaves, burned edges, and frequently burned crisped leaf tips by the end. They were planted alongside other basjoos I kept indoors over the winter and, with other TC's I bought at a later date. EVERY plant was treated identically watering and fertilizing, but those two plants just did not want to grow right. They barely grew 3 feet tall While the others beside them almost tripled in growth! Im guessing sometimes the basjoos we buy might not be the most robust or may have some genetic deficiencies, due to the fact even their specific pups would display the same flaws. I wouldn't give up on them totally but I wouldn't save their pups to use next year. If it ends up being a case of just a "bad plant" look to buy another completely new basjoo to grow. Sometimes it just is a crappy basjoo. When you do find a specimen that truly grows excellent make sure you save those pups for next year by all possible means unlike I did my first year lol
