1Right_Anglestarted grow question 4 years ago

My outdoor plant certainly appears healthy, but has developed beautiful burgundy Stripes on the Cola Branches. Can you explain what is happening, is this a genetic trait, or does it need something?

In vegging it can be a magnesium deficiency but in flowering it is part of the growth. Looks like your in preflowering now. Good luck nothing to worry about.

Qué podría ser? Bloqueo de nutrientes, sobre fertilización? Cómo solucionarlo?Hoy lavé raíces pensando que tuvieran un bloqueo de nutrientes. Creo no están sobre fertilizadas, pues las hojas estarían de color verde más oscuro y duras, como si fueran plásticas. Y éstas están caídas, algunas blandas y con esas puntas amarillas. Algunos tallos están morados.

Deficiencies? Brown spots, yellowing and purple stems What is this deficiency or maybe toxicity and whats the solution? She is fed with biobizz chart instructions but with every other watering. She is big so I'm guessing I should water with nutes every time? She showed this first week into flowering.

Plants stress on first grow, no nutes yet. Barney's Cookies Kush.These badass ladies were planted March 20th. I have not fed them yet (not sure when to start nutes when growing in soil). They are showing some stress. Nutes and bigger pots maybe? My light is a Mars Hydro TS600. General hydroponics trio is my plan.
