Needs more time to tell... If you see some sort of sack between the nodes forming its male if its a white string like thing coming out of a calyx its female i guess in 1-3 weeks max and you can tell safely

Leaves turning yellow/pointing up, stem turning purple
Having a problem with one of them.. all the leaves have gone very yellow and are pointing upwards. The stem is also very purple now. Any ideas what this could be? Other than a feeding of bud candy and watering here and there it hasn’t gotten any other feeding. Thanks!

Purple stem
I read that purple stems can be due to many things... but I’m not sure what this could be - is it a nutrient issue? pH? “Tan”? Genetics?

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 :)

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?

My plant is twisting itself..
Woke up this morning to find my plant dancing to "Twist Again". Is this due to airflow setup inside the tent? Perhaps the lighting's intensity? The Diary at hand is my DPGC2025 - (PSYCHE!) - OB3 if you're interested in knowing what led up to this 😅

Calcium Deficiency???
So this is a Calcium Deficiency right? Noticing on top leaves. Not bad yet but want to stop it before it starts as this grow has been my best so far. I have been using CalMag every water but I did lower the dose for a few days as I was told I was using too much for flower.
