Farming- a bunch of catastrophies that result in a lifestyle

Hi all, some input would be great. In my diary, ( I just finished posting the pic so it might not be in diary yet) I have posted a picture of what the 6 leaves that have this look like. Should be the next to last picture in my diary. I will post a link as soon as it is available.
It looks almost like someone splashed yellow paint on the leaves.....of the six leaves that show this, 2 are 'older leaves' out on a secondary. 2 more are on relatively new leaves about mid plant, the other two are on leaves off the main about mid plant.

Pa

had similar thing on 1770 Leiber last year, not sure, I think consensus was it was genetic, it was wiped out by pythium in july anyway. It was only plant that had it last year so I ruled out weather or soil issue.

1 teaspoonful of Epsom salts per gallon. A nice gentle foliar or two and you will not see this again.

I tend to agree with you both: it 'looks like' magnesium deficiency, yet, the same identical plant is in the compost pile that I grew over the winter- it re rooted in the pile, has grown all over it and shows the same 'yellow splashes'. Only plant I have doing this.
