I get the same thing. It's on the lower leaves that are starting to yellow and can extend further up if we are talking about the same thing. I will hope you get an answer cause I've wondered too.

Could just be genetic, and you are looking kinda burny at the tips. Not really at expert at diagnosing seedlings, but id say u have too much nutes/heat. I basically add no nutes to seedlings that age, however I'll use some rooting suppliments like Mykos and the dark brown juices that come in drops and such.

I wouldn't worry about purple stems at this point then, as long as leaf growth remains healthy. I get purple stems on my older girls sometimes, I beleive it's a pheno trait. If your dirt is already fertilized I wouldn't feed more, otherwise follow manufacturers directions for seedlings and should be fine.

idk where these people get off giving people bad info. its obvious these asses dnt have a clue what theyre talking about. if u dnt know the answer, dnt comment.
1st of all, u dnt need to give seedlings ANYTHING for the 1st couple weeks, except maybe a little calmag to buffer ph. NO NUTES. purple stems are nothing to worry about at this stage. purple stems could be genetic, and a plant could always have them.

Nutes not needed during the early stages, but that is besides point
@ the purple stems, they are hardly ever (if ever ever) a bad sign, most (if not all) of the time it is a sign of genetics of the plant and you can expect the purple tint to show up periodically through the grow (stems/leaves/buds if lucky)
