i am Having a problem with several of my Bananas turning yellow its not often that i get stumped but i just cant figure out whats up with them when i first noted this i treated them with iron no luck then i hit them with high nitrogen firt
could it be a calcium problem ? until some one can come up with a solution I'm going to use some kelp on them that way if its a mineral which I'm pretty sure it is but not so sure all have coved it any help would be grate
O by the way this is in both potted and in ground plants i you all need them i can get some pictures but cerfise it to say its just ordinary yellowing it doesn't look like cleroses to me the veins of the leaf are to same color as the field of the leaf my blue Java looks the whorst its pups look fine its just the momma maybe its sun scalding? the temps are 109 to 112 right now but are humidity is fairly high 50 to 60% this is are rainy season i am having to water daily. my Ae Ae put out a leaf that has bent down in a radical arc tourds the ground i thought it was drought so i watered the heck out of it but the leaf is still heading for the ground vary odd to me lots of browning on the new leafs i cant understand how it could be drought related I'm watering to the point of to much I'm sure of that? the new leafs are opening vary light yellow but not darkening down like normal its taking weeks for them to turn dark green i would think its nitrogen related but iv given them tuns of firt maybe the heat its interfering in its synthesis? would that be some sort of mineral deficiency thats preventing the up tack of nitrogen? OK thats every thing i can think of
