coffee plant problem

    3 responses

NQ Grower starts with ...
Hi Everyone, can anyone help me work out how to fix my coffee plant? I have two - both bought from daleys at the same time and planted in the same garden bed. One is looking great - about 1.3 meters tall and dark shiny green, the other, well hasn't grown at all and the leaves are discoloured (see attached image). Obviously the plant is lacking something.....maybe potasium? is it to late to fix it?

That looks weird NG grower..? Have u sprayed any herbicides around it at all? Do u wet the leaves when watering?

Is that really pale layer sort of papery and separated from the leaf? (like a blister?)

It's odd as they are in the same bed...have u had a really good look for any tiny bugs?

Hi Amanda - thanks for the reply. No herbicides (but no fertilisers either I have been slack). Not seperated at all the leaf feels 'normal' just looks bleached. no bugs that I can see, only some ants which keep trying to make nests on the trunk but I didn't think ants would do that....

I have to pass then NQ? I have never grown coffee plants. Maybe someone else?It doesn't look like any deficiency I can think of?

Is it in more direct/longer sun than the other one? How long have they been in the ground?
Let's see what the coffee growers here say tho..
