Canna terra - iron and nitrogen deficiency?


Recommended Posts

Trying canna terra for the first time, mixed a little extra perlite into the mixture and planted seeds straight into 10 litre pots. The plants are 5 weeks old and 3.5 weeks old and I'm super happy with how much they've already grown.

 

But the plants have been a bit of a lighter green than usual so I gave them a feed of green powerfeed about a week ago. Now the 3.5 week old plant has started shooting out real yellow looking leaves. Could this be fixed with an iron supplement?

I use Canna Terra all the time. Getting a bit expensive now though. I found when I used nutes other than Canna nutes the plants did not like it one bit. Not saying other nutes wont work but from my personal experience I stick with Canna Terra nutes when I use Canna Terra medium. Give it a good flush with water only, with a ph between 6.5-6.8 then water with half the required dosage of whatever nutes you are using. This url may help as well. https://www.growweedeasy.com/cannabis-plant-problems/iron-deficiency
