I purchased a Sour Sop tree about 2 months ago, shortly after buying the tree the leaves started to get brown spots. I removed the leaves and it looked like the tree was doing ok now some leaves are spotting again. I did not have food for it so I used raised bed food for vegetables which ended up molding. I replaced the food with citrus tree food as well as a thin layer of cedar chips to keep the bugs off and again it molded. I did have a raised bed garden and was using compost tea to water the plants. Out of about 30 plants I have 3 left. The soil did mold is that because of the compost tea? I also have a mite problem which may have aided in the plants dying, I had them inside a lot of the winter which is where the mites are.
