No debes preocuparte para nada, las lineas moradas pueden salir hasta por un leve estrés en la planta, si no ves otro síntoma debes sentirte feliz por tu trabajo! Buenos humos! 👌

Nein, kannst beruhigt sein. Ist entweder Genetik, oder Lichtstress.

Unusual new growth and clawing. Possible toxicity or def.
Anyone know what this could be? I'm guessing N excess but I'm not sure.

Autoflower week 9, not flowering
So what should I do, there's no signs of switching in week 9! I've tried changing to 18/6 lighting, but have only been running it for a couple of days. Besides that she is really droopy and the soil feels really hard (maybe lots of roots). Any advice is appreciated :)

Leaf color
What you think about it? Is she getting too much? I’m not giving her too much in my opinion. Her stems are purple and the leaves are yellowing a bit. Watering always with ph 6,3-6,5 growing in soil. I have a diary from her too. She’s like 47days old. Happy growing!

Purple stems on some seedlings?
Why would the plants on that edge of the tray have purple stems? Nutrient deficiency? I noticed the one I checked with a purple stem had more roots showing from the rockwool cube than any others... think they're trying harder to get to the juice cause they got shorted?

Deficiency or toxicity
Stems are really purple, leaf stalks and veins also purple. Something is up. Some leaves starting to show burn spots but not many. She's a bit down because she needs a feeding. Is this magnesium deficiency? Should I be upping my nutes at this point this late in veg end of W9?
