This colouration is fine. There is nothing wrong, it is not stress induced or a deficiency of any sort, it is just a genetic quirk of this particular plant. It may continue this throughout its' entire life or it may even become more purplish with completely purple leaves, or even go away all together. Do not be worried, there is nothing wrong with your plant, in fact the purplish colouration is quite common.
Hope this helps,... Organoman.
Yes...it looks like your soil is too compacted...and honestly, it looks like it has mostly sand/clay and really will give you problems the whole life of the plant. You need to carefully dig it up with a small root ball of your bad soil, then mix in about 30% perlite and 10% worm castings into the remaining soil, then re-plant that little rootball in the new soil mix. You might also mix in about 5%-10% coco coir. This will help with aeration and give better drainage.
Or spend a few bucks on a bag of good organic soil, and re-plant in that.
@Silverback_Guerilla, thanks a lot . I did soil work and i gave her a 10 hour darkness(even she had 15 celsius) she became so happy. and now i see all the time she drops leaves i give her darkness and she loves it. I will never grow 24 hour /7 again. I gave her npk 10 10 10 and cali mag and she eats well now. she became taller and happier.prob i will have 20 gram max. Im happy I made mistakes, next time i grow better
@Liblover, It is possible, but probably not a problem if you are gentle and leave a small root ball intact. Afterwards, you can water with a weak solution of seaweed/kelp and it will only be wilted for a short time. The plant will grow much faster and bigger if it can more easily spread its roots.
But, honestly...I think it's too late now..she is already flowering. I think your best option at this point is to just use a meat skewer or other long, thin, and pointed object to stab your soil many many times. Then, you can sprinkle perlite and other dry organic nutrients or compost onto the soil...stab it again many times to push it deep into the soil. Then water with your nutrients and a few drops of dishwashing soap in a gallon of water. This will help to penetrate all the soil really well.
Next grow, ensure that you start with a better soil mix and you'll have much better results!
