Looks like a mineral deficiency. If the tiny bit of minerals in a peat
pot can make a difference, I'll guess it's either a boron deficiency, or
maybe iron (iron bound up in alkaline soil except where the acid peat
maybe releases it.)
These are wild-ass guesses. It'll be interesting to see what other
theories folks have.
Best regards,
Bob
