Symptoms
Poorly branched trees. Leaf tips and margins become chlorotic and subsequently necrotic. Leaf margins are curled up longitudinally. Foliage showing a drooped, wilted habit. Premature leaf senescence and leaf drop, mainly on basal shoot parts.
Reasons
Magnesium deficiency.
Mg deficiency is rather rare in almond trees, but may be caused by low soil pH. A leaf content of 0.25% Mg is considered as adequate. Deficiency symptoms often appear after vigorous shoot growth, being exhibited on basal leaves first.
