So did anyone check the root balls for Nematodes?
I plan on doing this shortly, it makes sense as some branches are affected more than others on bigger plants. I've got some crab shell meal and some bud factor x to try as well (chitosan)

I live on the coast of Maine and get this almost every year on a few plants . We call it tar top for lack of a better diagnosis .
It starts when the air gets humid with cool nights.
IMO its a airborne pathogen
Some plants stop growing around the third week of july and start to look yellow like they have a nitrogen def.
Would love o know how to combat it
I have used Green Cleaner
Regalia
Oxidate
Baking Soda
Procidic
Actonovaite
Serenade
and others and nothing works
I believe it gets inside the plant systemically
I'm in the midwest by the great lakes, first time experiencing this purple shit. I had two in the ground that are fine no problems and 4 in 65 gallon smart pots, two of those have been culled and one had a few tops pruned out and one in a 65 is showing no symptoms yet.

They live on in a tortured state, growing slowly, some branches making normal growth, so the first time its normal to try and finish the plant. But its a sad plant without much to burn. Leaves, stems, no buds. The one good branch looks pretty normal usually. I stopped doing this.
