Unfortunately, your photos did not come through. I am unable to see the damage or if there are any signs of deficiency.
It could be growing faster than usual, which would explain more unopened fronds. It could also be that they are opening more slowly. Unfortunately, there isn't enough information to go on.
I would recommend doing the following for any diagnosis:
Check the pH. Many times this can cause issues. Here is an article that will help you:

Next will be to check nutrient levels in soil:

If all shows that everything is within range, then you can begin to diagnose for disease.
