Potting mix with fertilisers

Yoza

quick noob question.


If you use potting soil that has slow release fertilisers already added, (some say up to 4 months) do you still need to add additional nutes?

my plant is not looking too good, and started getting yellow burnt looking leaves.

I’m pretty amateur, I wasn’t sure if it was over watering, too many or too little nutes, so I decided to do an early transplant into some fresh soil.

And started by giving it a bit less water.
It looks a bit healthier but I had to get rid of all the yellow leaves and , by doing so may have lollipoped it too early.

the new soil has fertilisers in it.
Was wondering if it would pay to add a additinal or let the plant recover for a while.

not the best pictures attached

Any help would be greatly appreciated

There's too much wood in that soil. It's likely affecting your ph balance. Test the ph of the soil, it's probably too low.

That looks like good ole Miracle Grow AKA "Construction Debris in a Bag"
High carbon items (wood) in soil lock up a lot of nitrogen.

Your plants are literally in trash, get them outta that crap asap.
