Purple/dark under the seedling leaves
Verbalist
started grow question 5y 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 🧐

Strange discoloration
The plant is becoming less green, more yellow, dark green/blue, and the tip seems necrotic. She received a little more light intensity (TS1000 at 50cm, 25%dim to 50%dim) when she was repotted on the final DWC. T.A. (Growing on FeedChart) was used to create the nutrient solution.

Leaves dying week 6 flower
Hey growers, I'm at the week 6 of flower, and leaves are dying in some specific spots. Runoff ph was checked, 6.4. Feeding 4ml/L bb top-max & bloom. Bio-Grow was cut off after dark leaves, clawing & burned tips. Does someone know the cause? And how big a deal is it? Thanks!

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.

Nutrient burn, Light burn, or Phos Def? red stems purple bruises,
Noticed red lines leaking red into the leaves with purple bruising, and the starter bottom leaves seem to be turning yellow, with the leaves above looking dark green with spots. Is this signs of light burn or nutrient toxicity? And is it lacking phosphorus or just the strain gen?

So the plant I was worried might have a cal-mag deficiency coming on had slightly more yellow leaf middles and undersides. Tonight those have all started to go a deep purple color like some of her fan leaf stems. Does anyone know if this is common with the Forbidden Runtz?

Discoloration and Spots
I'm still not sure if this is a deficiency or some sort of burn. It's definitely spreading a bit more, and I'm unsure if there's time left to address it in the grow. Video of full plant in week.

Leaves are getting dark
Leaves are getting a little dark and cotyledon seems a little sad. I suspect it is caused by not watering her enough (i was only spraying her with water the first 4days) Any advice?😀

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?

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.
