Episode description

Before we identified copper as an essential nutrient, we were using it as a natural fungicide.  Copper is essential in reproductive systems in the plant.  Copper deficiencies are not wide spread, but where there is a deficiency, it is hard to visually identify.  Copper effects the reproductive growth but not vegetative growth, therefore the plant may show good healthy growth but actually have a copper deficiency. If you have pH higher than 7 and high organic content, it might be wise to experiment with some copper applications.
