Bigger leaves are turning a yellowish color while the smaller leaves are green.
  • Nitrogen deficiency - add nitrate of soda or organic fertilizer.
Older leaves will curl at edges, turn dark, possibly with a purple cast.
  • Phosphorous deficiency - add commercial phosphate.
Mature leaves develop a yellowish cast to least veinal areas.
  • Magnesium deficiency - add commercial fertilizer with a magnesium content.
Mature leaves turn yellow and then become spotted with edge areas


turning dark gray.
  • Potassium deficiency - add muriate of potash.
Small wrinkled leaves with yellowish vein systems.
  • Zinc deficiency - add commercial plant food containing zinc.
Young leaves become deformed, possibly yellowing.
  • Molybedum deficiency - use any plant food with a bit of molybdenum in it.
Ok .. all three of my sprouts are showing some signs of all these things listed here.. but i dont get it .. my soil that i use is Miracle grow potting mix

NPK RATIO is: 21% 7% 14% it should have plenty of these things.. but its showing that it lacks them all. soil mix is supposed to supply nutrients to the sprouts for a while.. or so it said thats what its supposed to do ..

don't use miracle grow man. Get some Foxfarm soil or something like that. Or, you could read up on it and make your own soil. If you're going to take the time to do it, at least do it right.

check your ph
I would check the ph too If it's to low or high the roots won't take up the nutes they need ...Between 6-7 should be fine but much lower or higher proper mineral intake may be affected leading to multiple Nute deficiency's at once....
