Hi folks-

I dont ask for favors much, but this time i could use a hand. In my diary, I have posted a picture of a leaf on my 501 beachy that appears to be suffereing some sort of deficiency. I'd appreciate any comments you can offer. I apologize for getting my picture order out of whack, you'll know what i mean if you look. Thanks!

Joze, I'm not an expert at this but here goes. Looks to me as if it is a nutrient issue. Light green color with dark veins could indicate an deficiency of Manganese. Possibly caused by a lock-up issue relating to the PH. Have you done soil samples? What is your soil levels? In the mean time you can apply the following as a primary treatment to eliminate two other possible causes of low nitrogen and Magnesium
20-20-20 and 1 table spoon/gallon of epsum salts by foliar and drench, wait two days. Should green up if not move to plan B. The following link should help.

Joe,

See new thread related to tissue analysis of freshly terminated secondary vines assuming yours have reached their desired length.
