Purple Stems
Mattustonstarted grow question 5y ago
Hi, Phenos like Sideral do not normally tend to color at the end of flowering (unlike Wedding Cake). However, the stems are already quite purple! I know low temperatures cause stress causing staining, but that much ? UV's and IR's of led light? An excess of something? Thx a Lot �

Nothing to worry about man. You're leaves look very healthy. Some strains just have purple/brown stems. Its all genetics. Purple weed will more likely have purple stems.

Stems becoming red. I didn't use any nutrients yet. Should I add a little bit of them to water? Water pH is about 6.5. Do the leaves look ok?Looks like stems becoming a little bit red.. I've checked other diaries with this strain and didn't found anything like that. Before transplantation I have completely flushed my soil about 2 times because I found a lot of springtails in. Hope I didn't got rid of all nutrients..Week 1

Plants stress on first grow, no nutes yet. Barney's Cookies Kush.These badass ladies were planted March 20th. I have not fed them yet (not sure when to start nutes when growing in soil). They are showing some stress. Nutes and bigger pots maybe? My light is a Mars Hydro TS600. General hydroponics trio is my plan.Plant. Stem - Red or purple

New red tint on top of branches caused by night of low humidity or other stress?This morning I noticed some branches on my young plants had turned reddish on top.
Last night the humidifier ran out of water and RH dropped to 40% overnight.
Could this just be a stress reaction to that low RH, or sign of a deeper issue?Week 3
