Yellowing near the top of my plants....

Over watering?
I keep them out over night and it started raining a couple days ago, they sit just under the outside edge of an awning and the water was draining right into them all night long, now near the tops they are a light light greening yellow. Is that the problem?
(they are potted of course, in MG moisture control) I know its not the best soil but I didn't know any better..

Thanks!
 
the large amount of water the plants have been seeing may have washed a lot of the fertilize out of the soil...I would give them a shot of epsom salts (about a Tbsp per container). You will see them darken back up in a few days...JMO
 
I also get the light green growth thing after a lot of rain and/or cloudiness. I think part of it has to do with the weaker light of overcast skies producing paler new growth. Makes 'em stretch too. And the fertilizer washing out makes the whole plant go a bit paler.
