Is it just me or are there tiny white things all over that girl? Mites or just stomas? Purple stems could be genetic, but could also be low Mg from what I've read

What kind of lights are you using? In my experience purple lights = purple stems.

I grow in soil, but from what I've read that ph may be a bit high for hydro.

I thought 5.8 was optimal?
