Dear all
I know this is probably trivial but I just want to make sure.
I have a windbreak of picea omorikas on both the north and south side of a 3 acre lot. A total of about 70 plants.
The plants were planted last fall as containerized 2 footers.
The plants suffered quite a bit the winter with a lot of browning. But they come back pretty strong this spring (with the expection of 2 which kicked the dust).
Nonetheless, in the past two weeks, some of them have started turning orange at some of the tips (see the picture). It is not happening throughout the plant but only at a few tips here and there and not on every plant. The needles are falling off.
Is this just a trivial water issue?
Some more relevant information: The trees are planted very close to a row of declining mature poplars which are probably draining a lot of water. Each of the omorikas have been watered so far by ~6 gallons of water every week through a dripline system.
