After not changing my lighting or watering schedule both of my plants germinated at different dates are having their stems droop + turn purple; is my nutrient mix weak? My runoff ph is 6.2 and there's no sign of any nute burn; theyre fed ~every two days in coco with canna ab

Hey there, bro! 👋 Your girl is experiencing a slight phosphorus deficiency (red or purple stems on the leaves). The phosphorus deficiency is likely caused by an excess of nitrogen, but you're at the early stage of deficiency and it's not dangerous, though you should take action! Feed your girl in a ratio of 1:3 (grow:bloom). The "grow" nutrient has a lot of nitrogen, so lower it, and the "bloom" nutrient has a lot of phosphorus, so increase it. By the middle of flowering, stop using the grow nutrient and only use the bloom nutrient! 👌😇👍 Good luck, bro!

Your purple stems could be due to a calmag issue . Or genetics , that's as far as I'm aware .
Peace

Leaves continue to get yellow and fall off. Plant dying, bud looks okay.Still having issues with my plant. Leaves are getting more and more yellow and 2 have fallen off. Pretty far from harvest still for the leaves to be getting this yellow. Temps in tent are 18-22 c with leds 200w act wattage. Overwatered once but I doubt it would cause this. Ideas?6y ago
