Red/purple Stem On Baby Plant?

  1. i noticed on my 5-day old plant that it had a reddish-purple stem. i was curious about it, so i moved some soil out of the way to see if the whole stem was like that, which it wasnt. the ver lower part of the stem that is IN the ground is white, but as it goes up, it has that reddish color. i thought it was because of lack of Nitrogen, so i put a miniscule amout of fertilizer that had 26% Nitrogen in it. still, i dont know whats wrong with it. im using Miracle-Gro. i keep the pot on my roof (good thinking huh?) so it can get maximum sunlight and rain. i live in West-Florida where it is very humid and bright as hell all day. (no exageration). i dont know what the strain this is because i got this from bag seed. also, i noticed that there was a discoloration on one of the first baby leaves. its also a purplish color, looks like a hint of yellow, but the other side doesnt look like that. it doesnt seem as dark as it was yesterday, maybe the fert helped a little? its still kinda dark, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
