This appears to be a natural part of the plant's aging process. If the leaves are turning yellow, drying out, and dying at this stage, she doesn’t necessarily need more nitrogen (N) fertilizer, she needs the right balance, depending on your specific growing conditions, and judging by how deep green the rest of the plant is, I’d say she’s already getting sufficient N. At this phase, her focus shifts to phosphorus and potassium (PK) while drawing stored nitrogen (a mobile nutrient) from the lower leaves. She won’t grow taller anymore; instead, she’ll direct all her energy into bud development and allow the older leaves to fade naturally, just as nature intended. Maintain a low but available supply of N (avoid overfeeding), while prioritizing higher PK levels. One last thing are you absolutely sure you’re providing enough phosphorus (P)? I ask because I use a high-potassium bud booster (NPK 13-0-46), and if I don’t compensate for the lack of phosphorus, I see the same purple stems you’re experiencing. A P deficiency can restrict bud development, so it’s worth double-checking your feeding regimen.

N deficiency. despite the ad nausuem bro science that says a plant doesn't need N in flower, it absolutely still does. N is a component for numerous things beside stem elongation and leaf growth. It definitely needs less, but still needs plenty. I go from 120-130ppm to 90ppm and that typically avoids toxicity as well as deficiencies. So, you know it's being used at a proper rate. Those numbers won't apply to a soil grow, but the gist of it is the same.. probably about 70% needed after flip. how much you feed in vege will impact that based on how much gets stored etc.. there are local variables that matter. observe and react.. never assume. i wouldn't make a huge change but increasong how much N you provide while not impacting other nutrient levels would be wise.
