Purple stem???

Hey I got a little plant that has been having purple and dark stem. What is this? Is it asking me for nutes it's a month old with no nutes except for a little bone meal.i wish i could of took some pictures but will have them up soon.

thank your lucky stars. i'd pay good money for a purple vein

you have anything to worry about there.

though do do some more reading.

Most of the time this means the plant is going threw fluctuation in temperatures. warm days cold nights will purple them up.

From what i understand, it is either Phosphorous and/or Magnesium deficiency OR a genetic trait.

My Sweettooth 1.1 has very purple stems. In its case, it is a genetic trait, i believe.

If the"dark" is like black and right at the soil line, watch out for some sort of rotting problem.

95% of the time this is just how that particular plant grows...i get this alot red stems purple stems purple lines on the stems.....its not a problem

I know the strain is sourkush from reserva privada. I did have them inside and once I've moved it out the weather has been hotter then usually an cold at night. I'll keep on eye on her

If it's not genetic it's a P deficiency. It's time to add nutes.

^^ how on earth do you know this without a pic when most all the time a purple stem is just an expression of the plant??!! ....as long as your leaves are lush and your growth is of a normal pace its nothing man!...my bad didnt see the word IF at first lol

I feed her and the new growth became a light green color

I think lighter green new growth is pretty normal.

agree with hank hill here

N toxicity.

too much N is messin' with your P. that's what it "sounds" like to me. a pic would help.
