I don't think it's a nitrogen deficiency. Because their problem starts from the top of the plant. And nitrogen deficiency starts from the bottom. I've done a bit of research and concluded that it might be an iron deficiency. Iron deficiency is usually due to a pH (alkaline) that's too high, and it can be corrected by flushing the medium with water at the correct pH, and if necessary, an iron supplement can be added. Iron can react with other nutrients and cause its own problems, so it's important to proceed with caution and observe all changes very carefully.
