Hey everyone, recently noticed my plant beginning to turn from dark green to very bright lime green, but it's only effecting the incoming new growth leafs, and seems to slowly be spreading to the shade leafs around, Mg deficiency? photo(11).jpg

If you have been feeding blood meal it is definately not nitrogen deficiency. All dried blood has in it is Nitrogen. Plants love it I use it all the time. Try feeding trace minerals. I use azomite rock dust, works very well. And if your growing strait in the ground I would recommend using humic acid as well

it is not a N def. a N def starst at the bottom leafs first working its way up with yellowing and leaf drop, your plant looks great except pic 1. witch apears to be near the top of the plant.
from what has been said already it seems to be some sort of micro nute def, not sure witch one

is the 1st pic the only spot on the plant that is yellowing?

and for a micro def, i would get a well balanced nute that has them all, maybe look around the forums and see if you can nail down exactly witch one it is, although this is hard as alot of them look the same.

hmmmm.....lime greenish? pics would help but i'd raise the pH up to atleast 6.5 if your using soil method, and yes some foods i believe can cause an acidic change for the pH

If you are watering with nutrients that are highly acidic it will drop your ph. Use a bit of sweet lime dolamite will raise your alkilinity to normal levels
