N or P deficiency?
Need help to understand if this is P or N deficiency. It's on the lowest fan leaves, one is more pronounced than the other, and it's mostly on one side. Stems and veins look like they're giving hints of P def but from what I searched leaves look like it could be N def.

Catching a fade?
Is this fade normal for a Crème de la Chem? Or is this some other kind of deficiency. This plant has not had any issues. She’s the most healthy of all of them. In the pics I’m trying to illustrate the purple color showing up on some leaves.

Some concerning leaf colours beginning to emerge.I suspect it is some kind of nutrient deficiency, which I accept as I'm not feeding, but would be good to know for sure all the same. Weird that its just on the one plant despite them both having in the same growing medium etc

Seeing some top bud leaf discoloration
Starting to see small dark/black discolorations on the leaves. Since I don't know the genetics, I can't tell if it's prone to dark leaves. Could it be signs of anything else? Note: Started watering only using TopMax and ActiVera because of some possible Nitrogen toxicity

Why is one of my plants turning purple at the top?
One of my plants is starting to turn purple at the top, both leaves and the bud itself(As shown in photos 3, 5, and 6 for week 11). Could this possibly be bud rot or something I should be worrying about?
