Re: Newer leaves turning lighter
I used the granulated kind and I think I bought the 35lb one from ebay which was a pretty good deal. Many other plants have shown this kind of lightening so I've used it on those too and it seems to solve the problems.
Hopefully when it comes back next year, it won't have this problem and hopefully get above 10ft. This year from leaf tip to ground, they seem to be ending up around 5-6ft which is not bad for starting out from 2 inch basjoo plug plants in the spring. I expect them to come back around May and really take off growing for next year and based on how hardy basjoo is reported to be, with complete protection and already being planted 1ft deeper, I think they should come back very strong.
