Possible Zinc Deficiency?

Is this a zinc problem? The GrowFAQ has this to say.

Deficiency-Symptoms: A deficiency of zinc will result in the yellowing of chloroplasts between leaf-veins, usually with purplish spots of dead cells on leaf-surfaces; older/lower leaves are the first to show symptoms. Vegetative-growth is retarded and deformed, and floral-growth is reduced. Excessive “Zn”-levels can initiate an “Fe”(iron)-deficiency.

I scanned this link. It may be a zinc thing or ph to high. I have a ph meter so I'll check it (as soon as I read the direction again, every thing I stick it in says 7 to 7.25).

Soil.

I found this:

Leaves are light green or yellow beginning at the base, while the leaf margins remain green. Necrotic spots may be between veins. Leaves are not twisted. >> Manganese (Mn) deficiency. - Mn gets locked out when the pH is too high, and when there's too much iron. Use chelated Mn.

My soil ph is about 6.8 and the soil does not need watered. I'm going to give this a day and see what happens. Only 2 sets of fan leaves are effected. Each set has 7 leaves with 2-3 effected leaves per set.

Maybe a go straight H20 for the next few waterings with this particular plant. Plants are amazing at self correction given the right environment. Nice job...

The next two waters are H2O. I'm doing 3 water and the fourt is 1/4 strength bat gauno water (8-2-1). that was 2 waters ago. plus it was only 150 to 200 ppm.
