These plants were identical a few days ago. The one on the right got Jacks fertilizer plus extra manganese... plus extra calcium sulfate? The one on the left got chelated iron only. There isnt as much difference in the roots yet, but eventually the greater foliage will also create greater roots. It seems that iron wasn't the issue for the plant on the left, but probably acidity, lack of phosphorus and nitrogen (and maybe manganese and sulfer and calcium) were issues. It took a few days, but the turnaround is remarkable now.
