Well I can tell that the one mother needs a flush but the purple stems may be just her age. This strain(Chronic) does get purple stems as it reachs maturity.

maybe a phosphorus deficiency? also might be cold temps or yeah just strain dependent. I know many of my seedlings had purple stems from what i believe was the lack of phosphorus in the medium aswell as cold temps when the lights were off.

I have found purpling stems or fan leaf stalks doesnt really mean too much on its own.If there were other signs showing like leaf color change or wilting or drying or curling then this can assit you in correcting it.I have many a plant that has had purple stems and even the whole main stalks and it never made any issues.You can kinda see the purple stems on the fans in this picture but the plant is fine..
