My plant is a good 3 weeks old and the leaves are slowly turning purple/blue. Does it look like a nutrient deficiency?
The plant is in a 2L pot. The soil is Biobizz Lightmix with 60-80g of chicken manure fertilizer, NPK is 4-3-2.4 + 0.8MG
Could it possibly be the genetics too?

Be careful with chicken manure, it's better to use a bit less and go for cow manure or horse dung pellets... The nutrients in chicken manure are very "hot," that's why your plants look like that... it's better to sprinkle it carefully on top rather than mixing it in. It can also happen that the root area gets too warm from something like that. I would rule out genetics based on the pictures.
Try to repot into less hot soil as soon as possible and be more cautious with fertilizing. What are you watering with? The older leaves look a bit like a magnesium deficiency.
Best of luck!
