yellowing/chlorosis of new growth--pics

Hi,

The new growth on my plants are yellowing from the base of the leaf outwards--new leaves are completely affected. I've searched high and low and can't find an answer. They have had two applications of tomato miracle grow fertilizer 2 weeks apart (using the hose hook-up to a spray bottle). Signs showed up about two days after last application. Nights were a little cold 6C and 8C respectively.

Bottom leaves are unaffected.

Could it be a micronutrient issue??/pests...

Zone 5a Ontario Canada

Any help would be greatly appreciated as it seems to be showing up in more plants.

Thanks,
ewegrow

Weed killer damage.

Contact can be direct, as in mis-applied spray, or indirect, as in floated on a breeze.

So, have you, or a neighbor, used it anywhere in the vicinity?
