Symptoms
Calcium deficiency causes the banana leaves to become chlorotic and later light brown necrosis appears from the top of the leaves.
Symptoms start on younger leaves, but growth is not restricted. The lower part of the leaves shows deformations in its shape; the margins are torn and parts of the leaves tend to curl inwards.
Reasons
Calcium deficiency
Boron deficiency shows similar symptoms, but the chlorosis and necrosis starts from the margin and not from the top of the leaves. Furthermore, the leaves are not torn.
Symptoms
Symptoms of Ca deficiency start on younger leaves, but growth is not restricted. The leaves become chlorotic and later light brown necrosis appears, starting from leaf tip. Ca deficiency creates "spike leaf" appearance where the lamina of young leaves is deformed or absent.
Reasons
Calcium deficiency
Symptoms
Fruit damage, caused by splitted peel and rotten fruit flesh.
Reasons
Calcium deficiency
With Ca deficiency, peels split when fruit ripens.
Fruits can also curl, damaging or scratching others in the bunch.
Fruit weight and diameter are reduced.
