Brown spots and leaf edges
Gave my mom a basjoo in NY in hopes she may be able to actually plant it someday, as I’ve seen some users in jersey had success with those in the ground over winter. BUT it’s looking sickly.
Banana Gallery - 2E61FD39-D3FC-4C26-AEA2-5D9F2E40EDF2 It has little dark pinhole spots Banana Gallery - 97AA343B-CE25-40B3-87AA-EF164418CDD6 The new leaf is also a little damaged Banana Gallery - A5EA5B7D-7B53-4CE9-B3AF-C956304A522E And I pulled off the smallest leaf which to me looks like it’s rotting at the base. It’s soft and gooey Banana Gallery - A0B91F06-0ADB-4000-A381-12D5A9FFDEB7 When the old leafs fall off mine they kinda just split at the base and turn brown, but I don’t recall specifically noticing them being soft like that. I grow all of mine indoors in an apartment, so outside is new to me. It’s in a mix of 50/50 perlite and some generic potting mix. It’s in a spot where it’s shaded in the morning and gets full blazing sun in the afternoon, so I think it might be like sunburnt, or maybe it’s overwatering because the dirt dries pretty fast on top (like in a few hours of 80+ heat and sun) so perhaps we’re over compensating. The other thing is her tomatoes right next to it tend to get little bugs on them and she sprays them with a soapy mix frequently. I had some mites on mine and did the same thing and noticed it damaged the plant where it collected in the petioles near the stem. Any help is appreciated, thank you! |

It’s been outside for at least a month now*, and this apparently just started happening. I guess I forgot to mention that, sorry.

The base is starting to dry out now, I cut off what I could of the soft moist dead material. The surface of the soil looked bone dry but when scraping down about an inch it was still very damp, it’s probably been sitting in it this whole time like that. |
