Nothing wrong

 

[Boatguy]

I frequently have older leaf stems turn purple. Not the same as purple stems... Carry on

 

[Jimbo the Gael]

Those aren't anything to worry about.

 

[LongsPeakstate]

No purple at all, then bam, after a water they were purple and sagging, even before water. My big girl looked so nice this whole time, then this crapola

 

[LongsPeakstate]

Those aren't anything to worry about.

Whats up though? Why? I cal magged at noon, thats when they wake up. On from noon until 8am, so 20/4. Ff nutes super low strength, I always ph and my Temps are perfect as well as rh. I'm retired, I'm fortunate enough to have all the time in the world.

It is normal. I.E not a problem .
Dont sweat it. If your mains turn purple, that is a sign of problems... Stripes dont count

Not to worry. Common occurrence. Here is one of many such girls.

You're worrying about the wrong stem. Those are actually petioles, not stems. It's the main stem you have to worry about, and even then, if you have a purple strain all bets are off.

 

[MICHI-CAN]

Send them to me. I like purples.

Bohdi Dragon Fruit. And I had issues with citrus mealies at this stage. Hence the leafs blotches. Gotta love out doors.

 

[bEelzeBosS]

I never get concerned with purple stems unless the leaves are showing signs of deficiencies. Purple stems are a trait of many strain genetics.

Well two of them are blue berry big devil, which have purple genetics, but my gorilla glue has the same affliction

Thank you, I'm stressing

My counterfeit GG had purple leaf stems. No mains. No problem. I kept her for a few cycles. Best I find ATM. Unknown GG from EU. A few of the purps are visible.
All good if no leaf issues.

 

[Imcamping86]

Cooler temps will do that .......

 

[twentyeight.threefive]

Thank you, I'm stressing

No stressing over this, it's fine and normal.

Look at the underside of the leaf stem. I can see it's green. What's happening is a leaf reaction to the light. Similar to a sunburn in a human. All my plants look like that right now.

One of mine from 2 weeks ago.


This one from another grow back in May. This one with the stem twisted to show only the upper section that was exposed to the light showing the purple.

 

[hillbill]

Not one thing wrong, Burn One Down!

 

[MICHI-CAN]

Yes. But generally in the leaves. Not stems or stalks as witnessed in MI.

Here is the same GG after finishing on plant, in ground and really close to 32F for several days.

I have no answers in 10 syllable words. But I do not believe serious concern is warranted.

I’ve seen stems turn wicked purple from lower temps . Not just leaves .

 

[bEelzeBosS]

I feel like most Gorilla Glue seeds sold by most seed banks aren't really GG.
