Check shoot tips for yellow leaf blades with deep green veins. Because iron cannot move from mature foliage, chlorosis strikes newest leaves first. Base leaves yellowing evenly indicates nitrogen loss instead.

Saturated roots starve of oxygen, preventing iron uptake even at the right pH. Check three inches into the mix. Clear blocked drainage holes and empty saucers before adding any acidifiers or fertilizers.

For fast foliar rescue, apply a dilute chelated iron spray like Fe-EDTA or Fe-DTPA early in the morning. This bypasses roots to restore green chlorophyll in existing leaves within 7 to 14 days.

Use an Fe-EDDHA root drench for lasting substrate availability. Unlike Fe-EDTA or unchelated ferrous sulfate, Fe-EDDHA remains chemically stable and soluble even if the container mix sits at a high pH.

Bring the root zone back to pH 4.5 to 5.2. Apply elemental sulfur per container label rates, switch to acid-forming ammonium sulfate fertilizers, and avoid nitrate nitrogen sources that raise potting soil pH.

Alkaline tap water deposits carbonates that raise potting mix pH over time. Irrigate with harvested rainwater whenever possible, and test the substrate every four to six weeks to catch upward pH drift early.
