- Does the yellowing start at the bottom of the plant or at the tips?
- Are the veins still green while the rest of the leaf fades? That points to a nutrient deficiency.
- Look under the leaves for tiny insects or white specks.

From the pests and diseases recorded for this plant, the ones whose symptoms match, most serious first. Symptoms alone rarely confirm a cause, so use the linked page to check the signs and treatment.
Iron Deficiency
Yellow-white interveinal chlorosis begins on the new leaves with only the veins staying green. In severe cases the new leaves bleach entirely white and growth stops.

What other growers did about it
A page like this one can tell you what blueberry leaves turning yellow is and what to try. What it cannot tell you is what actually happened to someone who had it on the same plant, at the same point in the season, and what they did next.
Gadenin is a free garden journal built around that. You photograph the plant, tag what you are seeing, and the entries line up by date for each plant you grow.
- Tag the problem and the app tells you how many other growers have logged the same thing on the same plant.
- Growers who make their records public can be followed, so you can read what they did and how it turned out.
- Next season your own entries come back at the same point in the year, so you check the plant before it starts.
Free on iPhone. Recording, tagging and reading public records cost nothing.
