So? Can anyone help. The whole plant is starting to turn yellow. I have flushed it good, but I'm not sure what deficiency this is.

Touch of Epsom salts to the flushing and id grab some topsoil and mix it into the works.
Micronutrient lockout.
You should look into kelp powder base for adding into flush.

Thanks Frank!

Has your problems got any better, was this a good remedy to micronutrient lock out?

Adding a little lime to your soil (3 gal. cont. about 1/2 cup) will help to raise and stabalize the low ph.

Plant is looking better. Gave it a flush, added some lime and epsom salt. Thanks for the help!
