Trying to make observations on why seedlings can have purple stems over the last few years and following everyones seedlings here.
Above all else is it moisture stress, i see green/brown stemed seedlings turn purple as they approach the point we precieve they need water. Watering earlier seems to hold off the purpling.
Another recent factor is stem thickness, this correlates to non mj studies in that thicker stems are made by plants that have more water available.
This for those that have grown here a while now - any chance long term you can confirm this purpling and its reason maybe we can add some more info in the future. Im long suspecting that most of our problems aremoisture related.
