Hi guys,
Hope you can help me find a solution to this one that has been puzzling me this week. I've noticed my chiltepin started dropping some leaves late last week with the problem getting worse through this week. The weird thing is, the leaf drop is only happening on one side of the plant (both old and new leaves affected), with branches and leaves on the other side looking healthy...
Here's the plant
Healthy side - no leaves missing whatsoever
Bad side - some branches are almost bare at this point
I've been pruning the branches that have no leaves left in order to try to promote more growth elsewhere, but it might be too early for it to grow back some of its leaves.
Here are some parameters
* The plant is growing in a 1 gal kratky container with MasterBlend.
* Nutrients were changed over the weekend after the leaf drop was noticed, PH 5.8
* T5 Lights are turned on and off manually. They stay on about 12 - 13 hrs a day and they are about 6 inches above the plant.
Thoughts?
Thanks!
