answered grow question 6y ago
2 reasons: genetics, of course. Also phosphorus deficiency. With P deficiency, it's often caused by colder nighttime temperatures which make the plant burn through P like you'll eventually burn through the plant. Add some P and the spread will stop.

This is very very bad
This is very bad. I need help. I have two autos. Both got the same nutrients and light schedule and pest spray. One is getting worse. I don’t know what to do, see the progression

What’s this dark coloring?
One leaf, well on fact just one finger has this darkish coloring. It doesn’t look to different from typical end of life leaf coloring it’s just exceptionally dark. It’s the only stress sign and it looks fine from below. It also feels healthy. Not limp, not dry. Anything to worry?

Deficiency or Change to Purple?
started using the new “Purpinator“by Terpinator. Used Terp for a time and I trust the brand. That being said I have a weird thing popping up on my Dos Si Dos. Can’t tell if this is the switch finally happening or a Deficiency. Never seen a purple color show up for Deficiency.

Starting to fade? Or nutrient deficiency?
One of my plants has several fan leaves that are turning yellow/purple, and I can't tell if it's low on N or starting to fade. The plants are 2 days into week 5 of flower with a 9-10 week flower period, so it seems a little early for it to be turning colors like this.

Purpling on leaves
Purple spots on leaves, leaf tips curling downward. Possibly a phosphorus deficiency caused by high pH?

Leaf discoloration
There 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?

Purple leaves -- copper deficiency due to pH falling below 5.0 for a few days? Or natural color coming out due to light and age? Thoughts?
