i have in one of my spots outdoors 2 females a few feet apart.. the one seemed to bounce back nicely with lush green foliage. but the other one hasnt gotten any bigger in a while and all the leaves are very droopy and very yellowish green to yellow. also, much of the main stem has turned purple along with most leaf stems.i have watered them with a 10-60-10 flowering fertilizer with 1 tsp/ per gallon of water because i thought it might of been a Phosphorus deficiency....but i would greatly appreciate anyones input or helpful comments...

Man, without pics hard to say. Nitro def shows same symptoms. Iron def similiar to nitro except yellow starts at stem/leaf apex rather than outer edges. Whats you PH? It could cause deficiencies no matter how much you fert. Can't be vague about the complex chemistry of plants.

Hey man, I'm not being sarcastic. I gave you 3 possibilities. I just can't narrow it down without more details. What's your PH? Which way are your leaves yellowing; at the apex or edges?

How close Next to it is the other Plant.?.

the reason I ask Is the Stronger looking Plant May be strangling the weeker ones roots.?.

Thats what I was thinking.The stronger plant always wins.
