A few upper fan leaves on my Triple Chocolate Chip have purple edges & tips, Im thinking it's a genetic trait since it should be getting plenty of nutrients. Ph is mid 6s, I use Grow Big,Tiger Bloom& molasses. Not sure if I'm right tho. Parent strains are Mint Chip & Triple OG

Tiger Bloom had an NPK of 2-8-4 , and I've top dressed with a bloom boost, I'd think the phosphorus levels would be within reason, and from what I've seen in pics, phosphorus deficient leaves have splotches of brown/purple before it gets to the edges. Not saying it's not deficient, but it doesn't add up at the same time. Hmm.

That happens near the flower flip. Means you have a phosphorus deficiency! They need the PK in flower. Give them a good boost! It’s already been going on for weeks by the time you see it! ✌️🏻💚🌿💨

Yeah it looks fine to me! Just genetic expression. Probably will have some nice color in a few weeks!
