Blueberries

I have a blueberry plant that was planted 4 1/2 months ago. It was doing beautifully and all of a sudden the leaves are turning brown around the edges and look like they are dying off. I water every day but missed two consecutive days (temp around 30 C). Any idea what has happened?

In addition to a watering issue, it could be due to the pH of your soil. Blueberries like low soil pH; otherwise, the roots become blocked and the plant cannot take in any moisture or nutrients and will quietly wither and die.
