What are you feeding them? They need a complete fertilizer. You might also want to add more drainage in the pots- that helps with soil chemistry.
Also, decomposing wood chips/sawdust are bad for potted plants. I can't remember where I read the explanation, but I seem to recall a mention that decomposing wood actually scavenges N from the surrounding soil. I can't remember, but either way it's not good for young plants in pots. Save the mulch for older, established garden plants with good root systems.
thank you very much stinky, you have helped me out a bunch on past grows. the woodchips came with the soil i used but ill try and take them out i used the miracle grow soil with the 3 month of nutrients for young plants.. also i dont have anything to check the ph drainage to them i can do just gotta think of how i might just transplant them into another pot with some rocks ay the bottom then sand and dirt
redrosesforabluelady Reviewed by redrosesforabluelady on . ny grow journal, need slight assistance (pics inside) ok my plants are about a month old now maybe a little bit better, one pot that i have 2 of them in looks like they have some nitrogen deficiency. i say this because of the yellow leaves a bunch of them have fallen of as well, the other pot is doing pretty good but is now showing little signs of yellowing as you can see. i cant tell if this is too much water or nitrogen deficiency, it hasnt rained for like 3 or 4 days now and i havent watered to much to be sure any help or any Rating: 5
