Are they above or below other plants? Just wondering if they are being blocked from the light?
A mixture, some above some below. That's odd part, so I don't think it can be light entirely.

Might send the images to George Farmer, see if he has an idea.

Don't think so as I've been dosing Easy-Life Potassium of 1.4ml per day (10ml per week) but it seems to of had little effect. :s

Funny part is, the Java's have more new leaves growing than dying.
