Purple/dark under the seedling leaves
Verbalist
started grow question 4y ago
Is this normal about genetics that one of my Fem NL seedling has purple/dark under the leaves? Only one of them has this dark color under the leaves, rest of them looks like always before 🧐

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?

Purpling, contorting, drying, yellowing.
Leaves are going all nuts, i think it was from a bad feeding, i've been too busy, no time for notes, they started going purple after feeding so i used plain water for the next 3 waterings with +water, tops started showing calcium lack, anyone can confirm? Give bloom+cal right?thx

I kind of topped her a lot. I am a new grower. I appreciate suggestions and advice for bigger fatter more potent yields. I’m not there yet. Maybe I over fertilize?

Problema con mi Runtz Muffin
Buenos días, Tengo un problema con mis hojas, (puse fotos para que podáis ver). He visto que podía ser un deficiente de fósforo. Pero también puede ser un problema de calcio y de magnesio. Alguno podría ayudarme con eso ? Que tengo que hacer ? Añadirle un PK 13-14 ?

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?

Deficiency help
What deficiencies are these? I’ve flushed her, ph’ed her water and I’m giving her a good amount of nutrients - no nitrogen for the past two weeks I think. Is this just an age thing? I don’t need her to look perfect before harvest, but I’m afraid it’s affecting the bud maturity.

Purpling close to harvest
Hey guys just wondering is this a trait of the strain i'm growing or possibly environmental factors that causes this type of leaf colour late in flower? Just curious because maybe I stopped feeding nutes too early and I could have got more out of my plant if feed was kept up.
