Longan tree issues
« on: April 20, 2022, 07:38:37 PM »
Can some experts give me some advice on how to help this tree?
I picked up some copper based fungicide but doesn’t help.

Your tree looks fine from here. If your tree is small, I would trim off the flowers and let it branch out. A light dose of fish emulsion might encourage some new growth.

I am not as sharp with longan as lychee, but the brown tips on a lychee typically indicate water stress. It does not appear to be a major issue, though.

I started water it every day for the last couple days and hope it will improve

Usually the burnt tips like that are magnesium deficiency. Don't over water if it's potted, it won't help this condition! Give it a mild dose of fertilizer and water appropriately.

I don't see anything terrible here, so don't worry too much.
