Leaf Holes And Curling

[nicklfire]

Hey guys,

I have yet to do the EI dosing yet because i gotta wait to get paid and then order online but i'm thinking of going liquid for the time being... then doing the EI (because far cheaper and easier) but anyways... i bought some swords about 2 weeks ago, the leaves have been starting to curl within the last 4 days and it's getting some pinholes in the leaves which are getting bigger and bigger, the plants pretty much dying. would that be due to a Potassium deficiency?
And if so will just some Flourish Potassiumâ„¢ helpout with that

 

[anodized]

could be several things

leaf loss and pinholes is usually phosphate (po4)

deformations can be calcium (caco3)

potassium deficiency would cause yellow spots on old leaves and yellow margins on newer growth

sounds like you have a adequate light which most likely means one of the ferts has been used up.

nitrate and po4 test kit is usually helpful when starting EI, not mandatory though. how big is your tank?
