DankGardeneranswered grow question 5y ago

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 redGuys, 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?

Stem on plant appears to be narrow at the bottom growing beefier up higherThe stem on this plant appears to be narrow at the bottom growing beefier up higher. Any ideas on strengthening it up or will this hurt me further along?😲 I think this plant got knocked over once so perhaps thats it, just hope it doesn't choke the plant further along. Ideas?

Dark Green Leaves and Purple StemsPlant 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.
