Default Re: Drooping cigar leaf

That is interesting. According to what I found, you might increase yields with something added with more K... Grass clippings, for instance... Chop the leaves with a mower / bagger which will add grass clippings. (It's possible this is already happening if you bag them with a mower.) I use grass clippings and they love them. My first couple bunches had almost nothing else and did great. I now have 12 varieties and not enough land to grow enough grass.

Varieties I supposedly bought: Manzano, Cavendish, Blue Java, Sweetheart, and Gros Michel.
What it seems I actually have: Brazilian, Cavendish, Namwah, Dwarf Red, Gros Michel, Pisang Ceylon, Veinte Cohol and SH 3640, and American Goldfinger. FHIA 1, Paggi and FHIA 17... Always room for one more.
