Why are some of the stems turning red?

Today I noticed on Plant #1 some of the stems closer to the light are turning red, is this a bad thing? Should I lower light intensity

also consider that in flowering plants produce less chlorophyll, and consequently the leaves of the leaves above all but also the main ones and even the buds become purple. however, it does not seem like a deficiency.

Looks like sunburn. It's not a reason for concern unless it develops other symptoms.

If they are green underneath then its from too much light, if they are all the way red then its lack of phosphorous.

Dark Green Leaves and Purple Stems
Plant B has had no nutes its entire life in FFHF soil (3 weeks). Stems are a purplish color and starting to droop a little. Water is always pH'd around 6.3 but I haven't tested the runoff yet. Phosphorus deficiency? Heat Stress? Watering conflict? NL Photo just started flowering.

Calcium Deficiency???
So this is a Calcium Deficiency right? Noticing on top leaves. Not bad yet but want to stop it before it starts as this grow has been my best so far. I have been using CalMag every water but I did lower the dose for a few days as I was told I was using too much for flower.

The stems began to turn red
Guys, I need your help! The stems began to turn red. Yesterday it was less, but today it is more saturated and spreads to the veins of the leaves. Could it be a phosphorus deficiency, or am I worrying for nothing? And what is better to do in this case?

Natural or Problem?
Is this natural yellowing or is there a problem? pH to 6.3 and runoff is 5.7. The stem is awfully purple, watering/feeding is where I struggle. 1st pic - 4/21 and 2nd pic - today(4/24). Seems to have escalated over the last few days. Do-si-do auto about 10 weeks.

Deficiency or toxicity
Stems are really purple, leaf stalks and veins also purple. Something is up. Some leaves starting to show burn spots but not many. She's a bit down because she needs a feeding. Is this magnesium deficiency? Should I be upping my nutes at this point this late in veg end of W9?
