Got 7-8 plants all being treated the same as this, the infamous Fire plant, which is actually a Guava cross.IMG_8790.JPGIMG_8789.JPG All the others are very healthy looking, no nuts burn etc. All in cos/perlite, all receiving same quantity of nutes.

Last few days I've noticed this.

Please can someone shed some light on a remedy??

Thanks to SisterME and HomeGrown for your timely replies!!

Not been sprayed with anything.
Yes, full sun, but its been happy for three odd weeks outside, till now, just like some of the others are...

Root problems? Could the wall the pot sits on be too hot, even though I have two others sitting there too?

I haven't added any calmag to any of the plants since double buffering the washed coco( Hygen).

The odd thing is its getting the same treatment as the other plants...and they are thriving.

Im stumped.

Should I add Calmag?

I thought that too Sis, but have no idea from what.

It sits next to a small lemon tree, with some branches pretty close, but cant for the life of me imagine it could burn my plant somehow.

Is it possible its just a tricky plant to grow?

The breeder specialises in plants that produce solventless concentrates and great terpenes.

I was given some seeds. Could it be this strain is just tricky AF?


Thanks again.

at a guess I’d say ph is probably out and a bit too hot on the feeding. Heat from the wall can effect the root ones do & ph which could be locking a few things out.

How often are they getting water?
I use the "how heavy is the pot" method. Theres certainly no neglect on my part because I am in my element growing them and given all the other plants I have on the go get the exact same treatment its just weird. I even have two more pots that sit on the same wall, so I dunno.
Thats why Im suspecting an external influence...ie. the wifey used Roundup a week or so ago. She's carefully, she reckons, but the winds here may have dispersed a light amount across the plant...sigh.

Ahhh... would it have effected all three?


Anyways, not sure what medium you're using. I'm thinking cos/perlite is coir/perlite?

Coco/ perlite as mentioned above.

Im not sure what would be affected and what wouldn't, given its a mystery as to what caused it in the first place, but the wall is long, so the pots were at least 5 metres apart, not grouped together. Ive removed the areas burnt. The newer growth seems unaffected so I'm hopeful it bounces back, but thanks Raniformis for trying to help me.

Is it spreading? Or still just the same leaves.

Round over spray could also cause these plants issues. If new growth is fine it was probably roundup.

It hasn't spread any further. Definitely something topical has caused it, presumably the ole' Roundup.
Plant has new growth and the flowering has not skipped a beat, so seems my fear of losing my FIIIRE plant was unfounded.

Finally found out what my formally poisoned Fiire plant is.

Turns out to be a Harry Palms bean, Space Runts X Guava 74, a very well known breeder in the States some of you may know, renowned for his terps, which I now get as this is the first time in my limited experience that a smell from a plant has shocked me. It has no ‘ green’ plant-like smell or hint of chlorophyll at all. It’s 100% Sunkist Orange. And not just a hint, thats exactly how it smells.

So glad the Roundup didn’t get it 🙂
