Thanks Patty. I did go to our local garden store and they said it was just normal. But I do think that it's more than that. I will try adding potassium.
: Hi patricia! Your rust discoloration on
: the leaves is due to a lack of
: potassium. What you need is a high
: quality fertilizer, one that has
: micronutrients aside from the
: nitroghen, phosphate and potash that
: make up the number rating 15-5-10. Look
: on the back of the label and the
: additional micronutrients will be
: listed. The more, the better. (there
: should be, like 6) check out
: palmprofessional.com and look at the
: breakdown of his fertlizer. I've had
: good results with that stuff and no
: nutritional deficiencies, like you
: have. I credit the fertilizer. It's
: pricey and you dont have to buy it.
: Just get an idea of what to look for
: when you go to buy fertilizer. Just
: remember: the more micronutrients, the
: better.
