Plants dying - Page 2

Fert1 · July 15, 2010

I have done some container growing the last couple of years with pretty good success. This year everything seems to be dying early. The plants are turning brown from the bottom up. Is it the extreme heat that is killing them?

I have been watering them daily,and they don't always look all that extremely dry to me. They are in the largest pots I could find. The fruits we have harvested so far have all been plenty large and juicy. They do not look water-deprived. I am not really doing anything different than what I did the last couple of years, but something is wrong. Ideas anyone?
