Hmmmm
Like always finding the problem is usually harder than fixing it.

Thanks ALDEVAUX what you say makes alot of sense as in these inoptune conditions for the roots will show up at the time the roots are most in need.
The concern I have is that I thought it was generaly accepted that any water fit for human consumption could do no harm to trees?
I would hate to have to cart water or something other than the housewater supply for the amount of trees I have.

I will try to find the salt content of our house water,What is acceptable?.
I have fertilised very little this year.
I will give all my trees a big drenching to remove any salt buildup. This may help as I tend to drench the soil but I generally don't water for any longer. ie no flushing.

jbhayman I am glad to hear it seems all are happy to call this leaf burn and not a disease.
As I stated I have trident seedlings in the ground some I hardly ever water and they get plenty of sun and have no leaf burn. I feel some how to blame for my potted ones troubles. I hate leaf burn
