Jim Lewis Guest Posts: n/a	[IBC] Fertilizer salts For growers of azaleas as well as other plants -- maple, cotoneaster, hawthorn, holly, Kalima, Nandina, Pyracantha, Viburnum, etc. -- here (http://www.ncagr.com/agronomi/media.htm) is an excellent and useful article on Management of Soluble Salts in Container-Grown Plants. While it is aimed at the nursery trade, bonsai ARE "container-grown plants." I've been having a major chlorosis problem this spring and have been looking for solutions -- adding all the chelated trace elements has NOT helped -- and have been looking for solutions.

Roger Snipes Guest Posts: n/a	Re: [IBC] Chlorosis - was Fertilizer salts Thanks Kevin, this summer if I notice the chlorosis again I'll try a shot of Epson salts. I use Peters 20-20-20 fertilizer, which is supposed to supply micro nutrients, but maybe some of the trees aren't getting all they need. Regards, Roger Snipes rlsnipes@icehouse.net Spokane, WA Zone 5, or maybe Zone 6. Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it, misdiagnosing it, and then misapplying the wrong remedies.
