An internet search for excessive/insufficient potassium in soil /hydro setup can help explain some of the potential issues and symptoms.

I agree cost of fertilizers and related goods have risen dramatically........wait till next season.

All my plants are cold hardy ......to the first hard freeze.
richards banana fuel fertilizer has an npk of 16-8-24, that's a lot of k.

i have been doing quite a bit of research on this subject believe it or not. but i do not want to kill other peoples nanners with wild theories or suppositions. just trying to see if other people currently involved here has done anything on this subject. i am sure it is being done, feeding large amounts of potassium that is.

and yes fertilizer is going up. and lawn fertilizer is high in nitrogen and low on potassium, which is probably what one is eventually going to have to get.
