what nutrients are you using and how much? what kind of media exactly? how many days between waterings ? they look hungry overall.Can someone identify what this deficiency is? It started a while ago. Yellowing in the top growth that’s slowly spread down. I was feeding them nitrogen up until I noticed the problem. I’ve since given them epsom salt (1tbl per gallon) bc I thought it was either Mg or Sulfur. I know the ph for the soil is ok…it ranges around 6.6-6.8ph. Water I use is boiled and ph’d to 6.7 ph. Not really seeing the effects of anything I’ve done. I don’t really have a clue what to do.
To start feeding I gave it superthrive foliage pro 6-3-9 NPK once at a half dose (1/8 teaspoon per gallon) then a full dose two weeks later. Also mixed in some molasses and seaweed to help the soil. Noticed the issue not long after thy second feeding. Didn’t alarm me to be a N-P-K deficiency bc the issue was up top and not the bottom. Have since stopped feeding and just been giving water and epsom salt. I also tried lowering my PH to 6.3-6.5 to see if that changes anything. The soil potting mix and manure all mixed together.what nutrients are you using and how much? what kind of media exactly? how many days between waterings ? they look hungry overall.
and yes i agree it looks like Molybdenum deficiency/lockout, witch is pretty rare using a good balanced nutrient.
and also agree they need a transplant for a bigger pot.
62f is the normal average temperature there? its pretty cold for roots that could also be causing you uptake problems.
start feeding half strength a balanced nutrients (with all the micro nutrients included).To start feeding I gave it superthrive foliage pro 6-3-9 NPK once at a half dose (1/8 teaspoon per gallon) then a full dose two weeks later.

Yes! I’m holding steady at around 6.7-7This is your PH range in soil, right? Just iron, molybdenumand magnesium has harder absorbtion.

I’m leaning twords this as well due to those purpling leaves, but also plant is looking pretty lime green, may be a nitrogen def causing a moly lockout as @Trash_2002 said it’s pretty rare
I'm having the same problem. But I haven't been feeding mine. I read that cal_ mag would fix your plants. I ordered some today and will try it as soon as it arrives.
