🍀 Pale or yellow leaves? Green veins on yellow leaves? How to improve that look? Any special fertilizer?

  • ✅ Leaf chlorosis or in other words "iron deficiency", especially during wet rainy weather - may be not harmful to the plant but bad for the looks.

  • ✅ This deficiency can be corrected with microelement applications - Sunshine Superfood.

  • ✅ Use Sunshine Superfood once a week to correct the iron deficiency that usually goes away within a month.

  • ✅ Then maintain plants health with monthly applications.

  • ✅ It is beneficial to use microelements in combination with regular applications of health boosting fertilizer such as Sunshine Robusta.
