I have 2 seedlings that have just come up. One has a slight purple color to the edges of its spiked leaves, but the other one has purple almost all over its spiked leaves. Is this a problem?

I'll post a pic probbably tomorrow

I had a Durban Poison seedling before that was purple when it came up, it was fine after a week.

I wouldnt worry your self about it mate.

Might be the strain, but to me it sounds like you need to give it just a hint of phosphorous. Not too much if it's still a seedling, but it's good to stop these problems before they become severe. Just give the plant a little and see how it goes, too much could make it burn so be careful. Look at the strain pictures from the seed bank you bought it from and see if any of the smaller leaves have a purple hue to them; if they do I wouldn't be worried. And as far as I know cold weather making plants purple is a wives tale.
