One misdiagnosis, for example, is attributing dead, black tips on new growths to a fungal infection, when in fact it is due to a deficiency in calcium. Sure, fungi can grow on necrotic tissue, but a fungicide won't fix it.
I suspect a lot of people attribute black areas to calcium deficiency when they are actually fungal infection.
