Well the classic definition everyone uses for ber is the inability of the plant to use water, etc. If my weather fluctuates really bad and my watering is out of whack then I think that led to my issue. I only saw it in my plants that are in containers so in that situation watering is even more and issue..

I was inclined to say not enough water but I'm not sure, I have those bottoms beneath the planters. This isn't normally an issue except when it rains and the planters are soaked and the trays are full of water beneath the planters.... I've been watering the planters from the bottom except for when we get the occasional rain for a few hours and then it's back to hot weather and more humidity.
