Red/purple stems and yellowing leaves is a sign of magnesium deficiency.

Early growth sick plants - photoperiod
Purpling stem, yellowing leaves, droopy leaves - I’m thinking nitrogen deficiency, but I’m not sure if I should add more nutrients or not to my current solution or if I should flush completely. PPM is at 850, and the PH is 6.3. What are your thoughts? Any GH nutrient schedules?

Please help. Last plant died exactly like this. Yellowing drying leaves from the bottom on all fan leaves while shoots get stunted / eventually affected.
Transp recently from 1g > 5g. Seemed ok at first day after (no wat) then leaves started rapidly yellowing / drooping. Tent is fairly small 40x40x120. Could it be the heat ? Also took out humidifier but still in same room tent vents. Is Canna Pro Plus watered between 5.8-6.2 ph ?

Leaves bright green
So I have ruled out the fact that this is not a ph problem, have been properly watering at a consistent ph of 6.5, tested the run off today and it's at a pH of 6.4, also there is purple stems and the main stock has purple running through it as well?!?! Is this lack of pk? ca/mg?

Calcium deficiency or overfed?
Hi. This is about my Apricot Auto which already suffered the yellow tips/edges. I took that as the result of heat/light stress. Now she also developed discoloration and brown spots on some of the leaves. It looks like a Calcium deficiency to me, but I am quite uncertain. Thanks!
