Hi all, I put three plants outside last week and when I checked on them yesterday they have been damaged somehow? I am from the UK and the weather forcast stated night frost the day after I put them out.

The strains are purple maroc, cream caramel (fast version) and bay 11. They are planted into the ground with fresh soil.

I would really appreciate some help, please look at the pictures provided.

Peace :ying:

Hey toker, thanks for the advice :) I really don't think its a derficency, and there were very little bug marks... I was supprised at how little bugs had them, one leaf on the one plant :)

They were planted in fresh Canna tera pro soil and growin in the same soil.

Thanks for the help bud.

Peace brother :ying:

Hey chef, thanks for the advice bud :) This sounds right and makes much more sense. I cut the burned leaves of now though, some were bright white is that normal for sunburnt leaves?

I am sure they will be fine! I have faith :)

Thanks, peace brother :ying:

Hi Wu , the other posts are right , that`s not frost damage . If you look closely at the pics particularly pic 2 a lot of the top which will be the first to get hit by frost is fairly good .

I`m sure you`ll get the vits sorted out but your biggest problem outdoors UK will be slugs this year . All the experts have said how bad it will be because of the mild wet winter & it`s really showing where I am , hedgehogs have never had it so good in the grounds .

Hey MJ, that is good that is not frost then, so is it sun burn or lack of vitamins. I just can not understand how it would be the vitamins because I checked them two days after planting in fresh soil and that happened?

I will look out for the slugs and hopefully tame things :) I understand what you mean about the weather. So the hedgehogs are happy ha.

I believe kelp extract or meal should have b vitamins and a bunch of other humic fulvics etc etc...

"Gardeners who have access to fresh sea kelp can make their own fertilizer. Simply place 1 gallon of chopped sea kelp in a mesh bag. Put the bag in a 5-gallon bucket and add enough water to fill the bucket. Allow the kelp to steep for three days, swishing the kelp-filled bag around in the bucket once a day. Remove the bag and apply the sea kelp fertilizer to the soil every two weeks."
