Kathy,
You did the correct thing. Nitrogen deficiencies do occur, but are
quite rare. Also, by knowing that it is a flaw with the plants, you have
done the right thing by not using them in hybridizing. Sure, they could
probably be sold as novelty plants, but I am with you about not knowingly
using weak plants.
One thing I always did is "trash" plants that were poor perfomers. If
a plant did poorly for me, it did not go into the Iris Sale.
