Yea looks overwatered to me aswell especially if your spraying them aswell.The leaves will absorb the water and if your watering the medium to regularly its being well overwatered. Let the soil dry out and stop spraying.... Good luck.
As for purple stems it could be a magnesium deficency but some strains do contain purple stems.As long as the leaves are fine i wouldnt worry to much but if they get worse then give them some magnesium but lay off watering.. Hope this helps :lol:

Ignore it!

No P problem or Mg problem there......fairly natural and could, and most likely be from K (potassium) level.....I like higher K levels all the way through , so "forget about it."

Water when pot feels light (let it dry out and see what that "feels like").

Looks actually rather GOOD so far......Nicely done!

Helpful NOTE: Don't start bloom nutes for 2 weeks after the flip in lighting to bloom......The plant does not need the high P yet...It needs the higher N of veg nutes to get it through "the stretch".....You will avoid the plant yellowing from the bottom up from excess P and low N...

Agree, not an issue. I've never grown in soil so I can't opine on the overwatering potentail, but plant looks sad, and you've got some experienced growers mentioning it, so....
Once she's happy again I'll bet you'll be cranking out the good stuff. And, you'll have some good insight moving forward.

No purple stems and petioles are natural, tolerated by growers but not natural. Overall they probably radicle scavange or electron quench away some stress caused by a multitude of problems.

I think your just experiencing some problems and the plant is reacting as it would naturally to these stressfull situations. Fix it and a lot of the purple should die away :-)

I've had new shoots that kind of take off purple/purplish when they're quite new shoots. By 2-4in they've shifted into nice green growth. I've thought it was normal (perhaps the plant did this as part of its normal growth process because of gentics was my thoughts). Was I wrong? They've grown pretty good, and I've changed nothing, but your post has me questioning my decision-maling. Not trying out for the drama team, just hoping to ID and make any course corrections I can to make my grow better.

I can only make you aware of why stems and petioles turn purple, diagnosis is much harder and why most ignore it as long as the plant is growing ok.

in most vases its stalled anthrocyline or xylem even called sap

as temps drop during the night the movement between leaf and roots slow causing a stall

depending on the plants age

it may continue may not

do note many breeder desire to breed with the colorful xylem stalled plants

but generally seen at least in the east as an undesirable abnormality

good luck

ps see to your nighttime temps

Interesting stuff. I'll be looking much more closely next grow. Jeebus, I'm gonna end up getting all paranoid again lol. Seriously though, thanks for pointing out some science. I've gotta work harder for it now, but then, ain't it always a mountain? Grow on.

I hate guessing, growers can make their own assumption. A while back i added a few links to nitrogen and anthocyanin after observations in my grow.

Nitrogen starvation can trigger anthocyanin formation through the ethylene pathway which causes an increase in sugars. Nitrogen sugar relationship is connected to quite an extent, ammonium/nitrate ratio can futher increases as does anything environmental that affects nitrogen ansorbtion.

Forget the purple stems and focus on the plant, they will go when it perks up. Could just be your grow room hot with no fans or extraction, could be somthing else idk :-)
This will make the OP feel better after those "advanced knowledge bombs" you dropped on him.. - :shock: - :mrgreen:

He'll learn all that in time......For now, the idea that "It's ok, they'll be fine" is a good answer...;-);-)
