Kiwi's leaves going white
« on: June 19, 2012, 00:04 »
I bought this kiwi a few weeks ago. It's been planted in a large pot on a south facing wall and was doing really well, but noticed that some of the lower leaves are completely bleached. Is this just the cold weather??

(The white on the leave isn't glare from the camera - they really are that white!)

Hmm.   :blink:

What sort of compost do you have it in?  Have you fed it with anything?
I try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days all attack me at once...

It's in new general purpose compost - been in there for a couple of weeks. Haven't added any extra feed yet.  Any ideas gratefully received  :)

What were the conditions that they were being grown before you purchased them? I was wondering if putting them in full sunlight or the sudden introduction to a colder climate (our so called summer) has shocked them.
