Plant went from peak health to this, i see quite a bit of purpling on the stems which makes me think i am over feeding which i can see signs of on the leafs but it has been consistently cold at night and during the day a lot too so i am not too sure, do not think its over watering as i have been watering every 7-9 days with correct ph levels, heavily airated water and some liquid worm castings because it needed it and some mycorrhizae fungi for nute uptake, thought it was over watered but gave it a watering 5 days later and it perked up a little but then went back to risky health,no pest issues above soil cant speak about below but i uave never had a pest issue ever as my grow space is secluded from outside areas and is in a tent in a closet.

Over all plant is looking nice, I don't know what your feeding with but purple stems can be a sign of the plant wanting more phosphorous. Now if its deficient or just not available is the question. and I feel this might be true. I grew my one clone outside and it only started showing purple stems when it was hungry and indoors it was always purple and the grow was hurting in terms of nutrients as the brand I was demoing was bunk.
Some of the pics the leaves look to be pointing downwards, almost indicating they have been overwatered.
It also looks like some lighting coloration on the leaves might be a sign it would like some more magnesium.
Check you feed and confirm you getting enough NPK and some secondary macros like calcium and magnesium.
In veg something like 4-4-8 is descent. Cannabis loves its potassium.
As for cold temps. yes they can cause some colour on the leaves to turn more purple and red, but this is normally observed when temps hit aorund 8-12c at night.
Best Of Luck!
Your plant looks healthy. Yes your stems are a bit purple but as you mentioned temperature might be the cause of that. I don't think there's anything to worry about just make sure that your light is enough distance away from the plant using a DLI/PPFD meter app.
Good luck with the rest of your grow and keep it up
Plant has been a litttle sad for about 2 weeks, extremely slow growth, but got it healthy enough to transplant and roots look really healthy to my surprise. Gave it a water of 450ml with some mycorrhizae at a ph of 6.2, top dressed with pk boost and a little bit of all purpose. now the battle is to get the plant healthy and happy enough to flip into flower. I think o over fed and slightly over watered the plant,even though i was watering every week or longer, must have been too much water,was watering 300-600ml every 7-9 days.
I have not bothered with updates for over a months because of the lack of positive progress. I was struggling to find the issue; adding different nutrients thinking it was a defficiency but all that lead to a lockout. I found out it was a lockout when experimenting for a few weeks, gave it a good flush with 4l ( roughly 1 gal) and it has been getting better ever since especially with the consistent feedings of beneficial bacteria and a ph of 6.5, growth has started picking up again after almost 2 months of no progress,i honestly though i should give up but since i am a new grower i thought i should put my knowledge to the test and it payed of, i am eay more confident in watering at different stages of life and nutrient volume. Was underwatering at first i believe but caught it too late,was hoping to finish before christmas but that will not happen lol, entirely my fault so it is well deserved. was gonna plant kings juice by green house if things didnt turn out well but i will save it for another time. Stay high.
Just cruising by this week, gave is some potassium silicate in a concentrated form after a flush but it seemed to me that it was locking out the nutrients again even though i fed it at 1/3 the recommended dose, so gave it a mild flush and now just consistently feeding it good microbes and molasses and not going to give the plant nutes until its 3-4 weeks in flower which will be when they need it. Going to flip my 2 plants in a weekish, i'm excited 😁🚬🚬💨🌬️🌿🌿🍃
Things are still bad and show no signs of improvement, i am thinking the soil is still hot but i have flushed it 3 times total so it must be root damage.
Yeah still not good, bought CX Hydroponics' Regen-a-root but got sent their wilt guard which is fine since i was going to buy it anyway but wanted regen-a-root first. Only have done 1 application of wilt guard and hope for it to work as i want to flip into flower soon but can't do so if health is down.
