Red Stem
- Thread starter MDRIII
- Start date
I read somewhere that a fan leave with a red stock and red viens on leaves was lacking something and I forgot. The reason I am asking is that I have one with those problems and is wilting (leaves wont stand up). Is there anything I can do to improve her health?

Water with some some sort of vitamin B1 like quickstart. The reddened stems and petioles are most often attributed to phosphorus deficiencies. I suggest that u flush ur media with a salt leaching product like clearex or distilled water. For soil/soiless grows flush media with 3X the amount of water as there is media. If u have 3 gal pots, be prepared to flush with 9 gal per pot. Then reincorporate ur nutes into the feeding schedule on next feeding.
