They dont have any of the wart looking leaves. It kind of looks like a leave thats been pruned and is yellowing from the tip.

 

[Jitterbugdude]

So.. do we have a consensus as to what it is?

 

[workhorse_01]

I'm thinking maybe ph but it's only on the lower leaves and the rest of the leaves are smooth, even the rest of the leaves with the yellow are smooth skined. Two different ph meters are giving me two different readings. I'll have more pictures tomorrow as today i'm on the couch. Three weeks ago a platform gave way in the attic of a house as my dad and i were lifting a air handler through the trusses , I reached and cought it before it fell on him and reinjured my lower back. It's been off and on for the last thirteen years but never like this. It feels like 230 volts being applied to the base of my spine ,with a burning sensation down the back of my left leg, not to mention the numb left foot. I go for a Lumbar spine CT scan. My doctor says hope for buldging disc not ruptured . You guys keep me in your prayers,please.

Ugh, that sounds like a pinched nerve >< I hope you get the best results! Try to take is easy, and heal that back!!

Ouch workhorse. I had surgeey on bulged disc 10 years ago, daysurgery, then 3 month doing absolutely nothing. Now i am back in almoat the same boat as you and am waiting for a ct scan. But here you have to wait for what seems an eternity to get booked.
wish you best of luck and get well soon.

Ask your doctor about (GABAPENTIN) generic for (NEURONTIN) IT DOES HELP ! just dont forget to take them they have to work in to your system.

I know the feeling all too well, 3 blown disks in my neck and 4 in my lower back and full of arthritas.
I lost most of my left hand use to a unlar ingury = FUNNY BONE, I get decompression therpy 3 times a week.
When needed.
The machine holds you by the head and waist and pulls your spine apart to releave the pressure on the discs.
It does work but takes time. I can not go under the knife unless it is a life or death deal.
It does work !!

13 yrs of chiropractic care ,and yes decompression theropy does work ! This time it's different for me the burning feeling and foot asleep are scary. I also have one fractured vert. Monday we'll see if it is causing any of this trouble.

 

[Brown Thumb]

My right foot is always asleep , It sucks, I have no choice but to live with it. My right shoulder Hurts, Bad. Due to my Neck.
I know Your Pain it SUCKS!!
I am a Bleeder. So I have to deal with it.
What sucks even more My sister is a Doctor and she says do not do the knife, she knows my conditions.

Workhorse,
Back pain is one of the most problematic injuries, affecting your overall condition. Sorry to hear about your injury.

 

[workhorse_01]

Far left is my next crop of YTB and gold dollar, 2nd pic is my second plot of onesucker, third is Bigbonners Big gem and last is my first plant !

 

[Grundle]

That looks real nice!

 

[workhorse_01]

Thank you, I'll get pics of my big plot tomorrow. Bigbonners big gem was planted a week later than my one sucker and i think in a week they'll overtake the one sucker.

 

[Brown Thumb]

No Pain , No Gain.
What sucks more is smokers have more back problems than most people.
Nice Job there on the garden.
Tom

that big-gem is a tall plant if you let it grow,

id suggest topping it at 6 ft. and not letting it get any taller,

i grew it last year, it didnt make the cut this year,,,,thin flimsy leaves, but a good cigg, filler,

, I reached and cought it before it fell on him and reinjured my lower back. You guys keep me in your prayers,please.

Your name suits you workhorse, Glad your dad is okay and hang tough as best you can.

We will pray you don't have to change your name to sway back mule. Best of luck!!!

Edit; by the way, aint them the best boots you ever had . They look just like mine. I have never had my feet get wet or cold in those boots.

 

[workhorse_01]

Yes ,they're heavy and they keep my feet dry but they leave a callice on top of my foot.
