You shouldn't worry at all, the purple lines can appear even from slight stress on the plant. If you don't see any other symptoms, you should feel happy about your work! Good vibes! 👌

No, you can rest assured. It's either genetics or light stress.

Might be something, might be nothing
The stem of my seedling is starting to turn a purply colour? But the plant seems strong and healthy by looking at the leaves. I have been watering twice a day, app. 80ml each time from the bottom up and spraying about 4 pumps every 2nd water.

Purple stem
I read that purple stems can be due to many things... but I’m not sure what this could be - is it a nutrient issue? pH? “Tan”? Genetics?

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.

Leaves continue to get yellow and fall off. Plant dying, bud looks okay.
Still having issues with my plant. Leaves are getting more and more yellow and 2 have fallen off. Pretty far from harvest still for the leaves to be getting this yellow. Temps in tent are 18-22 c with leds 200w act wattage. Overwatered once but I doubt it would cause this. Ideas?

Fixed soil PH: Now from young leaves' interveinal chlorosis to all over light green
Soil Ph was off: 7.1. Switched to phosph. acid and use Epsom salt. Now: 6,4ph, Ca/Mg ratio at 3:1 (instead of 11:1). Used foliar spray (GH Enhancer). Ladies still show deficiencies: Now all over light green. Didn't feed Bloom due to overfeeding in grow. Will give Bloom in two day

Purple/red stems and petioles on upper growth, mimosa x orange punch. I think the plant looks otherwise healthy, lots of growth. Genetic expression or cal/mag deficiency?
