Oops I peaked. I did think your potassium might be low but I couldn't have been more wrong. So I lose this contest. Foliage looks good, now add some phosphorus and hit 60# per day.

Maybe you should test the soil for mycorrhizal spores, hyphae etc. Maybe your microbial biomass isn't big enough to take in the nitrogen/phosphorus your plant needs even though it may be in the soil. Ha didn't think of that one did ya! Sorry, I'm new :-)

Good point... if soil phosphorous is high then don't add more to soil... try foliar instead?
