It looks like a definite nitrogen deficiency... if you had linked this question with a diary, we would be in a better position to advise you but on the surface, you need to definitely add nitrogen!

Should I be concerned about the purple spots showing on the freshly sprouted seedling? What could they mean? And when should I start looking to transplant ? And what would be a good height to start training the plant with garden wire?

Discoloration and Spots I'm still not sure if this is a deficiency or some sort of burn. It's definitely spreading a bit more, and I'm unsure if there's time left to address it in the grow. Video of full plant in week.

Autoflower leaves turning brown/purple My Green crack auto's leaves are turning brown/purple-ish. 9th week/bloom. Could this be normal/end of lifecycle? Deficiency? Genetics? [Specs: BioBizz org. nute sched, Vipar LEDs, 6,2PH, ca 25°C.] Any help, tips and hints are much appreciated ♥️🙏🏻

Dark purple areas on leaves — genes or environment/feeding problem?What the heck is this? Is it just purple genes or a stress/deficiency or a combination of multiple factors? I have checked three visual cannabis plant health guides, and did not find a single issue which looks like this. Maybe a combination of 2 factors, but I'm not convinced 😐

Some sort of deficiency?I'm thinking it's lacking phosphorus, but this is a first for me. I gave bio nutrients yesterday, which also contain phosphorus. I've read that bio nutrients need a bit of time to become available to the plant.... Any other feedback is also much appreciated

Two problems in a week. I diagnosed the first one based on similar grow questions (: maybe not right )First three photos appeared a week ago, I decided that it is calcium and took a more reliable Ph meter, maybe not right, but no new spots appeared. Second problem at the end of the week, 3 days after defoliation 2 large lower leaves and 2 leaves inside. 30 hours after watering.

Deficiency or Change to Purple?started using the new “Purpinator“by Terpinator. Used Terp for a time and I trust the brand. That being said I have a weird thing popping up on my Dos Si Dos. Can’t tell if this is the switch finally happening or a Deficiency. Never seen a purple color show up for Deficiency.
