    Some info required to better understand your setup before advising...

    How long have the plants been in the tank?
    What substrate are you using?
    What kind of ferts are you dosing?
    What are the dimensions of your tank?
    What lights are you using?
    Is your drop checker showing green color?

    Okay, since its been 3 weeks the plants should have sufficient time to transition by now.

    If the new leaves are turning yellow, it could be due to nitrogen deficiency, check the tank's nitrate levels with a test kit. If the nitrates are low, dose additional nitrogen ferts to support new growth.

    Seachem flourish tends to be relatively light on nutrient concentration (especially for macro nutrients), so you may need to dose more of it to match the plant growth rate.

    Do install a drop checker to monitor the Co2 levels, so that you can find out if its actually at optimal levels, and see whether you need to further adjust the injection rate.
