Nutrient deficiency imo. Nitrogen maybe?

#### Abhishek antwoordde op 2024-10-14

How would I add more nitrogen?

#### 9s antwoordde op 2024-10-14

With fertilizers

#### Abhishek antwoordde op 2024-10-14

I’ve been fertilizing every month with the tiny bead fertilizers, should I switch to the sticks or liquid

#### 9s antwoordde op 2024-10-14

I’m not familiar with beads every month. Liquid is faster. You might want to get something with both macro and micro nutrients just in case.

#### Abhishek antwoordde op 2024-10-14

Any suggestions?

### Riley reageerde op 2024-10-14

New growth is always lighter, so I don’t think you need to worry

### Abbi reageerde op 2024-10-14

Mine has been doing g the same thing, and it stays that way even when the leaves get older. I've been fertilizing with a liquid fertilizer ever two weeks but I've just been using the miracle gro all purpose stuff and diluting to the recommended strength for indoor plants. I really don't know if it has everything my plants need or not

#### Abhishek antwoordde op 2024-10-14

I guess we should both switch to a different brand huh

### Abbi reageerde op 2024-10-14

Yeah but I'm really not sure what brand I should even switch to🤔

#### Abhishek antwoordde op 2024-10-14

I’m not sure either, if you find some please let me know!
