Your plant leaves appear healthy. If just the stems are turning purple, most likely cause is from intense light. Nothing to worry about.

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?

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.

Lila Stil und Hängende Blätter Hätte da ein paar Fragen die Ihr mir hoffentlich beantworten könnt, liegt die Verfärbung des Stils an der kälteren Temperatur in der Nacht? Hängen die Blätter schlapp nach unten bedeutet das zu viel oder zu wenig Wasser?

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..

Is it nutrients? Light?What can this be? The stem is red, and I thought it could be over lighting (I had 2 LEDs of 200 W each), so I removed one of it. But now I am also wondering that it can be nutrients, no? If so, how can I solve it? Let me know what you think. It's an autoflower - 7 weeek.
