Whoa, I feel like a bonehead for not recognizing that as root rot. I think a couple of my tubs are a little bit rottish as well. Just a few lower leaves, so I'm not really in trouble yet, but seeing the health of your plants in 5 gal buckets makes me want to switch.
Enjoy the kushy deliciousness! Thanks for all the tips and inspiration, bro.
if you want, i take a bamboo stick and poke a bunch of air holes in the dirt, all the way down to the bottom... dries out much quicker. saved my sheffaleara (umbrella tree) that way yeah me too. i didn't realize it til this week, but good thing i did .
