I have noticed that the plants near the inlet for the gb are nice and green, but the ones at the other end of the gb are yellowing (especially the cauliflower). Around the veins in the leaf is still nice and green, but the yellow is workin its way down the leaf. I'm thinkin that its got somethin to do with the solids only gettin deposited at one end, and there's not enough nutrient to flow thru the bed. Any ideas on what it could be? I'm thinkin its either iron or magnesium, as i'm pretty sure that magnesium deficiency leaves the veins nice and green. Cheers Jono |
