Yo Lobsta, Have you been applying Sevin, Is there any yellowing of the leaves with the burning. burning only on the very fringe. If it's burning on the fringe only and you applied sevin or the such I'd say that is the culprit. Mine did the same thing after a sevin application. G said I probably mixed it to strong and applied at the wrong time of day. leaves crinkled a little then left the fringe burned. if you got yellowing with it check the watering levels. your plants look great in the pictures.

i did apply sevin, i dusted the plant from top to bottom with the stuff,a rather heavy coat.the leaves are burned just on the edge.this morning i mixed up some sulphur and water and applied that,i hope that wasn't a mistake.the plant has been growing a complete section every night,last night there was no growth i thought maybe the roots where having trouble,i'm hoping for the best. thanks for the response.
