@Dedo_Verde_92 hi mate I do believe the plant/s are searching for nutrients mainly npk which is your nitrogen phosphorus and potassium I can't see anywhere where it says what type of feeding you are using so if its organic I would look at adding some fish emulsion or kelp some guano for phosphorus and for a natural carb hit plus sweetener and root microbe feeder add some blackstrap molasses OR if you use bottled nutes then a good dose of that over a week should help them recover some color Pushing them too hard with limited food will only decrease the yields and stress the plant so feed them plants Mate and good luck

Looks like you have nutrient lockout and possibly some heat/light stress. To many nutrients will cause the tips of the leaves to go yellow/brown and the tips will also bend down. Heat/light stress will curl the serrated edges up . Purple leaves/Red stems is usually an indicator of phosphorus deficiency, Check your runoff/soil PH to make sure its in the correct range then check the EC/PPM of your runoff. My guess is it will come out high and you should flush some nutrients out. Looking at your previous weeks I can tell its your light that makes the leaves look pale. Happy Growing

Purple is usually a sign she needs more Potassium and Phosphorus or the P and K from NPK lol Your leaves are a very pale green too they should be alot darker than this maybe its just the light but as the grower below me said give her a good feed and you should be fine. Most grower will add pk to the first few weeks of flower and then phase it out in the middle and then phase it back in towards the end though NPK are mobile nutrients within the plant they are in constant use so they are constantly needed no matter which stage your plant is in :)
