Yes, it is normal for some plants and nothing to worry about. It is after all, called "Critical Purple" for a reason. Cheers, Organoman.

2 part question about harvest and flushing. I read that if most leaves around buds are turning color (purple in my case) you need to harvest soon before plant dies, is that accurate? If so my runoff is still the color of an ale after 3 weeks of flushing, is that normal or bad?

All my plants have purple stems on the leaves at this point. They look totally healthy besides that. Not sure how to resolve the issue or if it is not even big deal. Just don’t want to negatively impact yield. Any advice?

Only one plant has these very purple stems. It’s almost every large fan leaf. I’ve read that it’s a nutrient buildup or something? I don’t PH my water which I know is bad but any guesses on what is going on?

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

For a couple weeks there has been some redness in the stalk which I’ve thought nothing of. However, today the edges of some smaller sugar leaves have started to turn purple. Temperature is staying as noted above, should I be concerned?

N tox in full swing. Lowered feeding from 1 Tsp to 3/4 Tsp Cal/Mag, and Grow/Micro from 1/2 Tsp each to 1/4 Tsp each. Hoping this helps correct. Is it possible that overwatering also contributed to excessive N uptake? I let the coco dry out a lot more (~4 days) this time.

Hi Growers, my tent has recently hit some low temps at about 15 degrees lights off, I have now improved the temps by a few degrees to about 17 at lights off. Purple is showing on my stems probably caused by cold but purple also showing on the back of leaves? Should I worry?

Is the Durban Poison doing alright? The leaves are quite dark compared to the other varieties. My guess it's either a difference in the variety, or a nutrient issues.

The insides of a small number of future bud sites are showing some strange purple discoloration. My initial thought was that this could somehow be mold however under the microscope it is very purple. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. (see images week 11)

Purple leaves -- copper deficiency due to pH falling below 5.0 for a few days? Or natural color coming out due to light and age? Thoughts?

Why are the leafs on my plants getting dark green instead of a light green? Is it because of the strain or nutrient lockout (nitrogen toxicity, too much potassium, too much phosphorus?) or perhaps not watering enough?
