Hi everyone,

I have a question regarding the health of one of my banana plants. On the photo below you can see 2 plants of the same age that get the same amount of light, water, feed, etc. The one on the left however has leaves that are remarkably more yellow compared to the healthier green shade of the right one's leaves.

The right one is looking healty;

The left one grows very slow and its leaves are much paler.

Also note that on the above photo you can see the lower leaf being extra pale where the upper leaf covers it.

Does this seem like a deficiency of some kind, or a chlorofyl issue?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Best regards,

Karl
