Looks like phosphorus to me looks like its going purple. Using the feed table you should be okay. Maybe up the phos side of your nutrient then re evaluate buddy be my best advice though is just my opinion. best of luck buddy :)

Is this turning purple from temp changeSo it looks like what I thought was a brown spot (under the grow light), appears to be purple when I pulled it out to get a better look and stake it down. I did switch the light to something cooler, could this be from temp dropping. Not worried yet, just curious. Thanks6y ago

Does yellow leaves with red tips mean my plants need more nutrients or less? Jacks 3 2 1 on AutoWeek 8 (flower) top leaf tips are reddish and the leaves are more yellow than green. Does this mean that my plants need more nutrition?
I am using Jacks 3 2 1 for two autos and using it at 65% strength (650PPM / 1.2EC). Should I goto 100% at 990PPM / 1.9EC or 50% to 550PPM/1ECLeaves. Tips - Burnt

Yellow/brown marksMy plants are becoming more yellow and now also showing some brown/yellow marks. I'm afraid it’s because I may have splashed some water containing a little bit of CalMag on them one time, not knowing better. Might that be the issue here? And most importantly, what should I do?Week 2

Late Flower Rapidly Yellowed LeavesThe yellowing leaves have definitely progressed quite a bit in this last week. Does this look like a normal natural late flower nitrogen deficiency? I still want to flush the plant, wondering if I should start the flush now because the leaves are already starting to get yellowed.Week 19
