Ive got 2 of these holiday trees and both have the same issue. Both trees have to be staked up to keep from falling over and both have weepy growth on top with exposed bark.
Quote from: Yook on April 14, 2019, 08:13:43 AMMy Brogdon is recently planted and has not grown any yet. It stopped dropping leaves a few weeks back and looks decent. Now its leaves have developed light spots all over.Can someone help me diagnose? Thinking it could be something to do with watering, too much sun exposure, or anthracnose.Thanks much.Insect damage, fungi, nutritional issues? Need more info.

I thought I would share a picture of a graft that I did 2-3 weeks ago. Unfortunately the rabbits ate most of my seedlings before I got a chance to try some grafts. Buds from both are pushing out of the BuddyTape. I have tried grafting before and they all had failed. I watched some of the videos that Carlos has posted on YouTube and prepared some scions. How long I should leave the BuddyTape on and the clothespin? I remember seeing somewhere I think on these forms about the clothespin but don't remember where and when it should come off.
Recently did Pinkerton grafts with clothespins, cleft and side veneer, February 28. Just upcanned this one to a RootTrapper Squat.
I had something similar occur on my Reed Seedling tree last year about this time of year. The tree outgrew it over the summer and it did not come back this year.I never did figure out what it was. I was able to dig up a photo although it is not the best of quality.Quote from: Mark in Texas on April 14, 2019, 08:35:04 AMQuote from: Yook on April 14, 2019, 08:13:43 AMMy Brogdon is recently planted and has not grown any yet.

Mark, when is a good time or when is a seedling ready to be grafted? One of my hass seedling is about 10" long and may be 2-3 months old, I forgot when I tossed the seed in a pot.
3 weeks ago, I transplanted a Reed avocado from a 15 gallon container. I bought it from Clausen in Bonsall. This morning I noticed the young leaves are burning at the tips. All the old leaves have fallen off. Is this Reed going through transplant shock or just some nutrient deficiency? The temperature has been warm recently in San Diego but hasn't been over 80F where I lived so I don't think it is sunburn.-Jamex
My Reed is dropping old leaves. It's normal this time of the year.
