Could it be straight nitrogen deficiency as in a poor soil? - though I'd

If it were mine, I'd pot it in potting compost and put it back on the
windowsill for a few more weeks.

Thanks for the tips.
No aphids .. yet!
I put it back in potting compost and it is now housed on my window sill, just as the weather has turned for the better.
