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?

Leaf discoloration
There is a purple/blue tint to the tips of my older leaves. New growth coming in lighter green. Slightly red and purples stems only at base of oldest leaves. Leaves also taco curling slightly. Thinking phosphorous deficiency at this point, maybe combination N toxicity and heat?

Do those leaves look a little too dark green and slightly waxy? May have to lay off the nitrogen I think.

HOJAS MORADAS
Empezaron a ponerse moradas las hojas pero no se si será escasez de fosforo según lo que me estuve informando, o si directamente será frío. Esta en el mismo armario con otra planta y ella no se a visto como esta,entonces se escuchan las posibles soluciones !

Purple tips
Hi! I'm finishing up flowering and I was wondering what happened that made her tips turn purple. Nutrient burn? Deficiency? Cold (she was exposed to 3 C for a few days)? Genetics?

Dark purple areas on leaves — genes or environment/feeding problem?
What the heck is this? Is it just purple genes or a stress/deficiency or a combination of multiple factors? I have checked three visual cannabis plant health guides, and did not find a single issue which looks like this. Maybe a combination of 2 factors, but I'm not convinced 😐
