    Default the top new growth leaves are going yellow

    alright guys

    i am currently growing 4 fem bluebery in soil,they are 4 weeks old,they seemed fine until i potted up into 10litre pots,then 2 days later the new growth at the top of the plants have started to go light green and yellow and it is starting from the stem then working its way down the leaves it seems to be progressin quite quickly. its the same with the top new leaves of the side shoots aswell. well i potted up into different compost.(could this have caused it . well the ph. is 7.9(i know this is a problem)i am going to buy ph. down 2morro(i dont have it at the moment as i have not had any ph problems yet)

    but it would be great if you guys could tell me what my problem is. well iam a first time grower.

    i was thinking it could be nute burn because the soil may be too rich. i am not feeding any nutes at the moment

    well guys if you think you know what my problem is please let me know as i am getting a bit worried(lol)

    thanks again guys

    Can you post a picture please?
    If it is overnute problems, then the leaf tips would be burnt. You don't mention that the leaves are curled at all.
    Yellowing without any sign of tip burn or curling is usually a sign of nitrogen deficiency. However for that to happen in new compost seems unlikely, so I suspect that you are over-watering and rotting the roots. I don't have enough info to say more.

    yes mate could be soil, iv been using batmix which is quite rich and notice that after potting up my leaves tend to do this but they sort themselves out once they adjust. I would be more worried about that ph problem mate

    with a pH of nearly 8 your new soil is more than likely locking out Iron (Fe) from the plant

    Nitrogen deficiency doesnt affect the growing tips
