In terms of the macronutrients which plants need, it appears to contain : zero nitrogen ; barely a smidgeon of potassium ; and a trace of phosphorus.
So if your plants are suffering because of lack of macronutrients, you may need to supplement with an 'NPK' all-in-one fertiliser, or go the Estimative Index (EI) route (which amounts to the same thing).

Seachem advanced is not good on it's own as it's described as a "Natural phytohormone supplement".
You'll need a more general fertiliser such as Easy-Life Profito, TNC Lite or complete, and other brands.
All the best
