Hi Everyone,

I'm new to the forum and horticulture in general and I've got a brown leaves problem with my coffee arabica plant and was hoping someone here might be able to help me.

The plant has been having the issue for about 4 weeks now and has lost quite a few leaves and a few stems have dried up leaving me worried that the plant will die.

Initially I thought it was a black leaf spot problem but an antifungal spray I've been using hasnt helped land the problem has continued. I've since then thought it might be a drainage issue so I've changed the soil and put some small stones at the bottom of the pot to aid drainage. The pot also has some holes at the bottom.

Ive been giving the plant a 1/3 cup of water whenever the leaves droop down and some plant food every two weeks but the problem seems to continue and I'm worried that the plant will die.

Any help would be much appreciated! I've attached some photos to hopefully give a better insight.

Cheers

Sean
