Hello everyone, I'm so happy to have found this site and forum. Sure hope you can help me diagnose the problem. I have 4 plants that have been doing wonderfully up until 3 days ago. I recently transplanted them into 2.5 gallon pots from their original homes of perlite/vermiculite only. The pots are filled w/2/3 SuperSoil and 1/3 perlite/vermiculite mixture and added some humus/fish emulsion to the soil.
The leaves on one of them (the worst one ) went limp before I started the transplant process, in fact, that is what caused me to decide to transplant them immediately, thought maybe they were rootbound in their little 4" pots of vermiculite/perlite...now the leaves on that plant are turning brown as you can see from the pics. The others have started curling up at the edges and turning a brown/rust color.
The new growth is still in good condition, green and healthy looking, so that does give me some hope. I have checked the plants very carefully for spider mites, no signs that my inexperienced eyes can see.
From reading the other posts on here, I'm thinking it is either too much sun (out in the garden w/the tomatoes, pepers and corn) or possibly nute burn.
Please take a look at the pics I've posted and give me your thoughts, if you would. Thank you! D.
