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.

Can someone help diagnose my plants? I can’t seem to find anything online. Stems turn red over time, leaves are super dry and droopy even though the soil is wet. I have burnt tips on two of my side branches but that’s it. Not sure what’s going on, first grow! Please send help

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?

The stems began to turn red
Guys, I need your help! The stems began to turn red. Yesterday it was less, but today it is more saturated and spreads to the veins of the leaves. Could it be a phosphorus deficiency, or am I worrying for nothing? And what is better to do in this case?

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?

Blood looking
Kind of odd looking. I cut away a leaf during defoliation and the stem looks like it bled. Why did it do that?
