ok so this is my second grow and i have planted 8 plants, 4 diesel ryder, 1 sensi star, one blueberry and 2 unknown bagseed. the first unknown bagseed was also the first to sprout, i had to closest to the fan in my little seedling box(very ghetto) about 4 or 5 days after it sprouted, the tips started to turn purple, now, about a week after sprouting, it's second set of leaves are just about done and they too are turning purple. i honestly don't remember if this bagseed was purple or not, but is it normal for it to start this early? i know cold can be what causes a plant to turn, and it is right near my fan and it does get a little cold in the house sometimes. I'll post some pics tom when i get a chance, anyone have any thoughts?

well what i figured made this one a little different was it wasn't purple until it after it had started on it's second set of leaves, and here's a pic of it

hmm i see what ur talking about the leaves are turning purple aswell. i remember hearing that this is a sign of to much of one nutrient or too little i cant remember, i suggest watching the ready set grow vol 1 series 1-7 i think its in there. its quite long but its helped me learn ALOT about grow the herb

Your stuff will turn purple if the room temp drops below 55 degrees I think. So it being near the fan has something to do with it probably. It wont hurt anything so no worries. :mrgreen:

I don't see any purple...but I do see nute burn. Don't nute your plant until two weeks in at least...

this plant is in organic soil with no nutes.... but it does seem more likely its a problem than a blessing now, the one leaf seems pretty purple still, while the other is a weird yellow/purple mixture(will get pics later) luckily i got alot of sprouts, so this one might not make the cut, its just a bagseed anyways
