my plant is 4-5 weeks old now and recently the bottom 2 round leafs turned pale and yellowish. The plant itself is growing slow, only one row of inch long leaves and a second row of 1/4 inch leaves. The stem itself is a purple color. My friend has plants growing in the same conditions as me and his are growing taller and faster. Both spend all day outside. Should i go ahead and transplant my plant to the ground even though it seems small? And do the small round leaves usually change colors ? And purple stem when all ive seen is green :\ ? Thanks for any input. -foo
when those small round leaves turn yellow it's feeding time i also have some with purplish stems but they grow out of it normally
If I get yellowing I give some fert and a bit of epsom salts, about a teaspoon in a gallon. Adds magnesium. Yellowing can be a deficiency of Mg.
does the yellowing of the bottom leaves mean that the plant is dieing. who else has heard the salt in a gallon of water to add magnesium. i have some plants with bottom yellow leaves
