Guys the sides stems seem really purple!even the central stem.. Why? magnesium deficiency?or genetics? And that leaves tip pointed down; they are a problem.. Maybe N deficiency?(due the early preflowering for the wrong light cycle) Thanks :)

Leaf claw is due to to much nitrogen. The red or purple stems is due to not enough nutrients. So how can that be? Well, when you give your girls to much food, they take it up until some damage is done, leaf claw or tip burn, then because the feed is to high they stop taking certain elements. As my girls grow I watch the leaf stems and if they start to turn red, purplish and it isnt a genetic trait, then I know their wanting a little increase in their feed. Just straight water now if your dirt growing for a week or 2 with a little extra runoff to wash some salts out and you should be good. Cheers

You definitely want to flush them with at least twice the amount of water equivalent to the container size. The claw is a severe nitrogen toxicity. The purple is potassium deficiency. Your npk ratio could be off causing a toxicity and a deficiency or the excess nitrogen can cause a lockout of other plant nutrients. If they are going outside. Flush them real good while they set outside. Start out a week before you want to be outside. Leaving the plant for a couple hours and bring it back in. Increase the time outside every day by a couple hours until they can stay outside without drooping or changing appearance. Happy Growing!!!
