Red stems are mostly genetics related, there's a lot of bro-science stating this can be the result of a deficiency but 9 times out of 10 it's genetics. You should only be concerned if the branches/main stalk are turning purple, that is def a sign of a deficiency. But leaf stems are fine, especially in flower as your plant may be pushing a lot of anthocyanins (the chemical that turns cannabis/other plants purple).

Red stems is the cause of stress. Your plant can stress for many reasons like change of climate, light hours,forced stretch and more. Since it is only on the fan leafs and just a little bit of red, you should not be worried alot. If brances or your main stem gets red, you should do some check ups but that might be a only if question + solution for another time :) Goodluck growing :)
