Let's go back to this. Anyone find out for sure what the deficiency is? I have a working theory(thanks pot growers)...sulphur . It seems to manifest itself early in the season. Most of the diaries with leaves in this condition confirm this. When soil warms organic material breaks down releasing some sulphur. Some people treat with fertilizer, most water soluble ferts have a sulphate base. Problem solved. Some treat for magnesium. Add some Epsom salt which is a sulphate. Problem solved. Later in season, soil warms up and problem solved. In my case problem began as roots out grew the heat cables. I'll do what the pot growers suggest, add the Epsom salt.
