Symptoms:
The first symptom is yellowing of
older leaves, then bright yellowing from top to
bottom of plant, often affecting only one branch
of plant. Sometimes leaves droop and curve
downward. Plants often wilt and die.
Solutions:
Use Trichoderma harzianum as a soil
drench to suppress root pathogens on newly sown
seeds, transplants and established plants. We recommend
Root Guardian Biofungicide for
Soilborne Diseases. Maintaining soil pH at 6.5 to
7.0 helps. Test soil pH; if it is too acid, use Quik-
Cal Pelletized Calcium to raise pH. Follow up
with foliar sprays of a harpin protein-based product
every 7-10 days. We recommend Green
Guard™ Plant Growth Enhancer.
