Some of my plants are beginning to develop a purplish color on some of their stems. I was wondering if anyone knew if this was a sign of purple being some where in the strain that I have. Or maybe if it is a deficiency or something along those lines in the plants. Thanks all info helpful.
if its the stem it genetics if its the leaves it the cold air...Your leaves will turn a deep purple when subjected to cold temperatures (irregardless of strain). It always cracks me up when people try to pass off a cold climate outdoor bud as a purple strain.....
I've heard about the cold weather turning buds purple. Some people put their buds in the freezer to get the look.
dis coloring on the stem is a sign of some problem. at least thats the way ive learned it, purple will come either from strain or temps but more often then not its from temps.
well i know its not the temp because i live in norther cali and its fuckin hot all the time. You think the discoloring could be a problem Valley?
my stems are usually purple too, after like the 4 or 5 set of leaves. but i never get any purple bud, unless im growing a purple strain.
the coloring isnt a problem, it just shows something with the nutes is off if i remember correctly it was nitrogen but the plants coping so i wouldnt worry about it, my stems turn redish purple from time too time, you worry too much. just keep on growin.
