Plant nutrients occur naturally from the fish being fed and water changes. Sometimes this is sufficient, sometimes not. A photo of each tank so we can assess if anything seems out would help. None of us wants to spend money unnecessarily, but we also don't want to see the plants failing.

Crypts and Java Fern are naturally slow-growing plants. Swords are I suppose middle of the road, though at certain times of the year they can explode with inflorescences and adventitious plants. The photos should help us.

The wateer is cloudy, maybe the photo (?) or something else. But overall I do not see problems as such. How long has this tank been running?
 
I used to fertilize regularly and then I stopped...In my 60g tank in the living room, I switched from 50% weekly to 50% every other week...and the plants are doing just fine, if not better than before - like feeding your fish, sometimes less is more. :)
