It’s definitely a crazy world. I’m having more learning experience with this hoop house.

Could use some input on this.

I’m thinking cal/mag deficiency possibly fungal problem. 3 gallon grow bags which I’m sure are nutrient depleted. It gets hot in the hoop house and we have no fans. The only air movement is wind coming in the sides and ends. We recently dug the pond out we use for watering and kicked up a ton of sediment.
All thoughts welcome

I agree with your diagnosis. But would add…
Have you seen any bugs?

I’m sure that bugs are there. I’ve seen cutworms few aphids and a bunch of stuff I don’t know. I’ll inspect for smaller ones Thursday when I get back.
Probably just spray insecticidal soap as a measure to get them to finish

The white spots make me think thrips.
What I circled I believe is an aphid.

Yeeaa! More to do! They would probably have a population explosion in the heat in there.
Everything was cruising along until a couple days ago. It looked like it was fading as it finished and than a bunch of dead spots in 2-3 days

Water down heavy with a few treatments of BTI and put DE on every dry surface!

Hardware store carry this?

Yup.
I’ve bought online, at True Value, Wally world, and I think ACE. Most garden stores should have it also.

Just picked this up. You just sprinkle on top of your medium or put in water as a drench?

You can work some into your soil surface and water. But I make a tea-like brine with it(letting it sit for up to 24hrs). That way it’s already active. Then do a good drench. :wink:
