How's the drainage in the plots? Are they in ground or container?
I am still pretty new to this, one is in a container which does have some big holes on the bottom and the other is in one of those self watering pots.
I would of assumed drainage would be decent.
Where on the plant are the leaves yellowing?
My first guess would be transplant shock. When the roots are damaged the plant has heal them. The plant needs to uptake nutrients to repair the cells and grow new tissues. The problem is the roots are damaged and plant struggles to pull nutrients from the soil. So the plant moves mobile nutrients (like Nitrogen) from older leaves to the new growth.
The solution is usually to give the plant some fertilizer and wait a few weeks.
