I wouldn't be worried, your plant will grow fine. Some strains have purple stems naturally and I don't believe purple stem to be a real issue.
Hope this helps,.......

Leaves continue to get yellow and fall off. Plant dying, bud looks okay.Still having issues with my plant. Leaves are getting more and more yellow and 2 have fallen off. Pretty far from harvest still for the leaves to be getting this yellow. Temps in tent are 18-22 c with leds 200w act wattage. Overwatered once but I doubt it would cause this. Ideas?5y ago

Hopefully I get back lots of "Don't worry! it will be fine" replies!There is a brown resin coming from where the cotyledon leaves are/were.
Is this something I should be worried about?

No Color Loss - Week 7 Flower?Sup Gromies!
Got a quickie for yall. Usually around week 5 of flowing the plants tend to fade in color as the buds use up the nutes from the leaves. Well this AMS AK-47 XTRM is holding its color and tomorrow is the start of week 7! The strain only has an 8 week flower. Thoughts?Leaves. Other

Leaf problem and purple stemsHi,
I have a problem with my auto.
I have purple stems and problems with the leaves.
The soil contains organic nutrients and mycos sometimes I add flowering boost from royalqueenseeds so I don't think it is P or K problem.
Is it a nitrogen deficiency ?
Thank you for the answerLeaves. Curl up
