hi fellas

i am growing 5 fem. original skunk #1 and 5 fem. white widow from seedsman genetics.

WW is ok,but stems of skunk 1s are purple. all of them is in same medium and they are being fed same nutirents .
medium :70%coco,10% peatmoss,20% Worm casts ( i will add some perlite as soon as i transplant )
nutrients: biobizz grow and root juice.. i'll give them voodoo piranha and tarantula in my next water.
they are 15 days old .

what is the problem ?why my skunk 1s are purple ?

i had the same problem with a couple of my plants and asked the same question with no reply! the plants in question are healthy as hell now and still showing the odd purple bit here and there, but otherwise fine

i think skunk#1 has genetically purple stems.i seacrched on grow journals of people grow skunk #1 and most of them has purple stem.
but i am not an expert .it is my firts grow

Hi Charles,

I had purple stems on some of my seedlings - same fem seeds. They are all green now - I think they just grew out of it.

thanks mate ,my plants are green now ,too.

i think skunk1 is purple for first days& week.then it would be green.

thanks anyway

ive just had some rooted cuts start to turn purply, the mums didnt. i dont think its strain related cos theres 3 strains in there, all showing purp/red stems.

they're in the same temps.

drinking same ph.

same nutes except no bloom, but getting grow, mollases, worm and bat ex. and epsoms..

is it really 'no problem' or is it a difficult issue to pin down? they just grow out of it??

is this the scientific answer?

ef.
