Please take a look at my diary for the pic. I have no idea what it is. Any general help would be appreciated such as "just put XXXXX on them just to be safe"

Thanks all,
Ben

Water well...To leach out the fertilizer. If you overdosed them with fertilizer..they tend to look like this.

Thank you.

I hope it is as simple as that.

Anyone else to chime in?

your last pic looks like just a little bit of leaf burn, nothing to worry about. I bet that side is facing west huh?

does look a little bit like over fert.

In fact small leaf size is best for plants grown in very high temps. the plant tends to lose less water with a smaller investment.

I Wish my plants looked that good when they were that age, your going to pass me up man :)

I better step up the 21-0-0

Look forward to your vist on sunday!

Now this was foliar sprayed on...does the "water well" still apply?

The day after I noticed the damage, I rinsed off my leaves very well a couple of times.

Nope, thats the best you can hope for. Wash it off really well. And make sure it does not get worse. it should not, but keep an eye on it.

The leaf edges may dry up and break when you touch them.

If the vine tip got burned your done for the year, you burn that off and no more leafs can grow. The plant sometimes grows out of it after some time. But I don't think you have to worry.
