Hi @BonkEyesCZ! It was your pH, being too acidic. Considering you're growing in soil, you should stick to the 5.8-6.2 pH range, nothing above, nothing below. I see you managed to get out of this issue so congratulations and happy growing! 👊
Looks like nutrient lock out. A bit odd it's just a couple of plants. One possible cause is your ph of 5 is too low. In soil 6.0-6.5 is standard acceptable range. When you mix up your solutions make sure to wait 15 minutes then recheck the ph of the solution. Adjust if needed then wait 15 minutes and recheck. You would be surprised how much it can change. If you are using a digital ph meter replace with fresh batteries and re calibrate the meter. Old batteries can cause incorrect measurements. Also you should check the ph of the run off coming out of the pot to see if it is in range chances are the soil may be well below 5 which is causing the lock out. The second possible cause is over watering be sure to allow the soil to dry out a bit before re-watering. The fix is to flush your pots with ph correct water. Add nutes to the last bit of flush water for a "light" feeding be sure to adjust the ph. Let her dry out a bit once again before next watering. Good luck
