This doesn't seem to explain why only the top buds were affected though. Does it?
I don't know...(!!!)
The top 6 inches of soil dry out, while the bottom 6 are still wet. Top 6 inches of roots begin having issues, and show this at the top of the plant.
I have often wondered this myself.
Hey, at least you caught this early. The same thing happened to me and I waited and waited and never fixed it or checked the pH...Same situation, too high pH. My leaves died from the bottom up, though.
I only ever noticed the fan leaf damage, the actual buds were still pristine.
This is the only pic I could find....I grimace when I look at it.....
Are your buds affected or just sugar leafs?
