herbalistsswordstarted grow question 4 years ago
Noticed the leaves are turning a shade of purple. Is this normal or some nutrient issue?

Doesn't look normal for the strain you're growing, so it's probably because of cold nights.. cold can make the plant switch out the chlorophyll for Anthocyanins..
- It's not really a bad thing, as it makes your plant capable of absorbing a larger spectrum from the sun, tho at a diminished capacity.
