Why is new growth purple at only 3 weeks old?
maybelaterstarted grow question 5y ago
Some of the new growth has been coming in purple. Is this something I should be worried about?

Hello
Sometimes that red or pink tinged growth can symbolize over watering and root bound...which could be possible, but more in the way of adjusting to being transplanted, sometimes the new environment of a big pot that's very moist and the roots re-situating can bring funny symptoms. I think this color is just temporary though, let her fill in and relax and i expect the leaves will grow out to a green color over the next week.
Happy growing. ✌️

Hi friend. Try lowering your ph to 6.2 or 6.3.... 6.5 is where you want to be after your girl has started flowering. Cheers friend

Nope, it happens. When the leaves actually develop, that color will probably disappear. If it doesnt or if you notice others that color, the cause is almost always cold night time temperatures. The other possible cause would be genetics.

Purple Leaves (not purple bunds!)Noticed some purple patches forming. Im sure this happens every grow and I end up with a range of answers, but as I'm using some utes this time, I wondered if its more likely to be one answer over another this time.
Think its phosphorous deficiency?

Possible overfeeding nutes?Could someone possibly identify the issue on that one leaf? I had another like that a bit worse that where the edges started to curl. They were fan leaves so I ended up removing them as they were a bit worse off. Doing much better now, only guess is too much nutes.

Leaf discolorationThere is a purple/blue tint to the tips of my older leaves. New growth coming in lighter green. Slightly red and purples stems only at base of oldest leaves. Leaves also taco curling slightly. Thinking phosphorous deficiency at this point, maybe combination N toxicity and heat?5y ago

Catching a fade?Is this fade normal for a Crème de la Chem? Or is this some other kind of deficiency. This plant has not had any issues. She’s the most healthy of all of them. In the pics I’m trying to illustrate the purple color showing up on some leaves.
