magnesium or iron

20 years ago

I don't have pictures which may make this question impossible to answer, but I have one trait that might help.

I have search the forum for yellowing and based on what I found I think my Meyer has either a magnesium deficiency or iron. It has the yellowing between veins, but primarily at the tips of the older bigger leaves...which could be a billion things. But the new growth is made up of smaller yellower leaves that feel more fragile. They are pretty uniform in their color. I have fertilized 2 or 3 times since March with az/rhod food and the soil is lose and made up of at least half orchid potting mix.

Early this spring it just dropped all leaves but five...a bunch finally came in a month ago, but they are very bright green. Any clues? Iron or Mag..or am I way off the mark?
