What is missing from a plants nourishment when it is supposed to be reddish and it becomes all green? Ludwigia bottoms or any reddish leaved plants in this bunch:

i think it's light intensity & iron & maybe nitrogen.

What is the best way to dose iron? I dose plantex csm + b from Greg Watson per his website dosing recommendation.

Thanks,

I dose fourish iron.. I'd go with g. watson's recommendations.. You don't want too much iron either.. That'll boost certain algae.

Yep. Flourish Iron + intense light. Once the plants grow closer to the light, the tops will turn pink.
