Hi- the interveinal yellowing could be due to a nutrient disorder or imbalance or soil pH that is too high or low.
Can you please give us some more information?
How old are the plants?
Are they indoors or outdoors?
What size container?
What's the growing mix?
Fertilizer or other amendments used?

Hey Jon,
Thanks for the quick response!
Im growing in fabric pots so not so sure how to get an accurate read of the soil PH. Big LOL but i just fed them with the 444 from the OMRI people? They are indoors in a 3 gallon container. I also left the door open to the grow tent last night and wondered if that cold be a response to the cold? Thank you so much for responding!

Hi- a drop in night temps could produce stress symptoms like changes in leaf color. The bigger issue is that the plants won't grow and produce fruit this time of year due to lower temps and shorter days. You would need a heated greenhouse and supplemental lighting and even then flowering and fruiting would be reduced and fruit flavor would not be good. The same thing would be true for trying to grow them in your basement.
Your grow tent will be very useful in spring for promoting faster growth. We recommend a minimum of 5-gallons per plant.
