Is the yellow all over the leaf or just between the veins of the leaf?     Cheers,    Tony.
I may be growing OLD, but I refuse to grow UP !

 It certainly sounds like magnesium deficiency. The leaves turn yellow but the green veins remain green. The treatment is epsom salts diluted with water used as either a feed or a foliar spray. You can buy epsom salts from the garden centres. ;)

Cheers,    Tony.
