Hey all,
In January, I purchased two 1 gal. Cedar elms from Brent at Evergreen Gardenworks. Based on info received from our local bonsai club, I immediately potted them up into #5 pots using 1 part perlite and 1 part Happy Frog soil. I’ve been fertilizing with Jack’s 20-20-20 at the recommended strength once every two weeks. They’ve been exploding this spring with rich green foliage, but I’ve started to notice some of the new leaves have pale, spotted leaves. I’m concerned I may not be watering enough, but I’m curious if you all have any thoughts. The reason I think it may be a watering issue is because I also have two trident maples in the same potting mix and size of pots sitting next to them. Some of those tridents have some sun damage on their old leaves but the new ones are all really healthy.Thanks in advance.
