Trees and shrubs turning yellow overnight!! #878269

Asked July 22, 2024, 1:55 PM EDT

We have two hazelnut bushes that are prematurely turning yellow. The bushes turned yellow on the east side in two days. Are they somehow being poisoned? They are next to a wet spot in the field. You can see that the corn behind it is not doing well too.

Expert Response

Being too wet causes the same signs as too dry. Leaves dry up because the roots rot and can’t take up moisture. The only thing to do is hope they dry out.
