Yellowing leaves at the bottom of plant

Rico2625 · Jul 8, 2020

The plant looks ok to me in general but I’m new at this so asking you guys for help. I‘m starting to notice that the leaves on the lower part of the plant is turning a light green borderline yellowish color, is this a watering issue or nutrient issue?
Thanks

The plant is telling you it needs fertilization. What you are seeing is Nitrogen deficiency.

Medium? Nutrients you have? Are you fertilizing yet? If so, how much (EC/PPM if you have a meter)?

Yellowing is a sign of Magnesium deficiency. You can use Epson Salt 1TSP per 1gallon H2O.

I’m using liquid fish fertilizer. Do you have any recommendations on ph soil meters, also is it safe shoving that down into the ground ? Will it kill some of the roots and cause issues for the plant ?

I’ll look into this and the nitrogen if the ph balance is good. Thanks
