Boron deficiency in mustard

Boron deficient mustard plants are dwarfed and have rough leaves that roll downwards from the tip. Other symptoms may include:

  • Leaves with a marginal yellowing that sometimes develops over the entire leaf surface
  • Reduced flowering stalks
  • Sudden petal fall
  • Lateral shoot development from the older leaf axis
