Seedling

Planted in ground 10 yrs ago.

Lychee - Wai Chee (Grafted) ^3/10

Planted: 2009

Height 0.5 metres

Growing: In a Pot

Qty: 1

Sun/Shade: Full Sun

Pollination: No

Fertiliser or Organics Used: used Hydroponic solution

Pest Control:

Fungicides used Saprol, mangazeb and Coprox

Organic Status:Partially Organic

Question:

All the tips of the leaves have gone brown and the plant looks poorly.  Could this be the result of the coprox fungicide burning tender leaves or is it over watering.  There are a few plants in pot that have similar problems. 

Comments

Most likely - lychees are the only fruit tree i do not fertilize besides a bit of compost and worm castings.
