Default Type of Damage (Willaims)

Hey everyone and thanks for all your help so far!

My Williams looks to be having some problems, Is this just Cold Damage, Water or something else? It seems like the oldest leafs are better smaller, and some are turning yellow.

Well, the newest leaf looks fine. I would take the grass clippings out of the pot...and water it (since it looks dry.)

Hey, I like using grass clippings as mulch. Grass breaths good, drys and rots providing food, and grass is high in Nitrogen and once it gets a little old worms will crawl into the pots to eat the dead grass proving more vermicompost!

My real concern is the leafs seem so small for its size, the Orinoco and Ice Cream have such bigger leafs compared to the Williams. But the Williams is making leafs much faster then Orinoco and Ice Cream.

Add water. Consider a larger pot. Not likely that you could overwater it in that pot.
