So what causing the color change?

[rundlescunder]

Hate to bother anyone. I noticed on my flowering plant that some leaves are turning purplish while other nugs stay completely green. Is it nutrients? While light spectrum from proper diodes as I notice it is mostly top nugs that do this and my side lighting is blurple. I put together these new side lights by mounting and hlg 185 driver onto my 80w uva remon black light. I gotta get some new wire connectors as the ones I have suck but ya can anyone help?

Yellow down below in 'feed me please'
Yellow midway or at top is nute burn ...too much nutes = flush em

Red generally is stalled sap tho many strains have been bred to 'show' excess color
its still stalled sap good growers wont do this but have the sap where its needed
unless the customer demands

UV-a I use in deep winter for that extra shine on the trics (it can be dangerous)

good luck

Damn you're right, thank you flushing next watering. I'm trying the uva, I pull it out a half hour early since its and autoflower and give it 30ish minutes of uva at a foot and half away

that question really depends on your grow experience
I didn't say that but we had a big meet before Covid and I laid out my views

I doubt very much the average gardeners back in the 1960-70s new that
the mid range to noob grower may well disagree with that -cool
but all the energies of my plants are directed at thrics and their production
not at focused on cosmetic pictures and smells
we are here guys ...to get ripped

and yeah I've grown the well know reddie Cheery Pie amongst others

i agree 100 trichs and green has always been my preferred weed. Id prefer it be green any day and get me high than some fancy colors and just smoke like some dried leaves

What temperature are you keeping your room? Are the purple buds more in the direct path of your fans than the non purples?

Between 75-84 at the most generally 77. Night time temps range from 64-73

We had a colder early winter than normal this year and I noticed my purple plants were much deeper colored when they finished. I ran GDP for a few years and they usually didn't purple up in the summer.

O forsure there's been a couple times I've opened my tent and it was colder. It warmed up the past 2 weeks so I have been drawing cold air from my window thru a carbon filter. Will it be less potent because of that?

I think whatever is burning them will affect the quality more than a drop in temperature. It also depends on the strain and how far along they are.

Forsure I mean time will tell. Idk I'll take purple if its genetics but this is from a dispensary grab from over a year ago I honestly dont know if its durban poison my friend just said that it was as he took me. I honestly think it might be a different strain. My vaguest memory says the word ghost in it. Idk/rant I'm gonna go get stoned now
