Well my one time healthy plants were slowly starting to not look that great. I was concerned about the discolouring and after talking to an expert it looks like I was not giving the plants adequate food. I had started to fertilize the plants with an organic product but kind of stopped when the plants were getting to big. I still don’t have a hot house setup outside for room to expand (its been windy and night time temperatures are still to cold). In order to try and revive the plants I have been using a synthetic fertilizer (10-52-10) as recommended. A problem with a lot of organic fertilizers is the lack of phosphorus which (as I found out) is required especially at the early stages of plant development. A solution to this is to mix bone meal into the potting soil mix (something I will look at doing next time).
For now I am hoping the plants will recover and I will need to transplant them quickly (really about 2 weeks ago).
