Not a lot to go on, but as a start you could try a foliar spray feed
using a seaweed preparation which should correct many deficiencies.
Plants are very good at absorbing nitrogen and trace elements through
their leaves, which might rescue them if the roots are unable to cope.
A mulch is also a good idea if you give the soil a thorough soak first.
