What is causing this on my parsley?

Question

tips turn brown/yellow and then the whole leaf/stem turns yellow. I live in Tampa, Fl and it’s been hot, high 90’s every day with no rain. I water each morning till it leaks through the bottom.. Soil is dry the next morning.

Answer 1

Parsley will like to be on the dry side. Even though the soil looks dry on top, it will likely be wet still further down.

This looks to be a case of overwatering, led to mild fungal infection. In this case, you don't need a strong fungicide. It will benefit from two doses of the treatment that follows:

Mix 1/4 peroxide to 3/4 water. Water this in. Let the treatment work its way in for about a week, and water as necessary throughout the week (just letting it dry a little more between watering) and then do the treatment one more time the next week. Old growth will not recover, but new growth should come out clean.

Answer 2

Thank you! I will give that a shot. Our rainy season is about to begin though with rain (probably heavy thunderstorms) starting the end of this week, every day. I have the plants in a raised flower bed (parsley, basil, thyme, oregano, rosemary and sage.) Should I move the bed under cover like my lanai? It will get direct sun there from around 1 PM till 6 or 7 PM.
