Needed asset: Chlorosis Pattern Checklist comparing uniform yellowing, interveinal yellowing, new growth, old growth, and blotchy yellowing.
Field checklist
- Mark where yellowing began: old, new, top, bottom, whole plant.
- Describe pattern: uniform, interveinal, marginal, blotchy.
- Check if progression is fast, slow, stable, or spreading.
Measurements to pair
- pH, EC, feed history, water source.
- Root health, irrigation frequency, substrate moisture.
- Plant stage and recent environmental changes.
Common mistakes
- Treating normal senescence as deficiency.
- Adding nutrients without checking pH or roots.
- Ignoring pest or disease look-alikes.
Grow Doc prompt
Interpret chlorosis by location and pattern first, then compare pH, EC, feed history, root condition, plant stage, pest evidence, and progression.
