I am growing parsley for the first time and I have a flat-leaf variety in a planter box with 2 basil plants, which is very happy. I have another flat-leaf plant that is now in a planter box with 2 curly-leaf parsley plants, and all 3 have a white discoloration or scorched areas toward the edge of the leaves. I have done some research and can only assume I'm watering them too much. Does anyone have advice on how to bring them back? I'm now only watering twice per week. Any advice would be great.

Do you know if the discolored or scorched leaves can still be eaten? Cheers.
