Purple on underside of leafs?
I have a Dosi that's 3 weeks into flower. I've noticed the underside of the leafs have started turning purple. Anyone experience something like this? Anything to worry about?
I thought could be cold temps, temps are 20c lights out and 25c lights on. (Give or take) but it's only the 1 plant out of 3.
Maybe Genetics?
Stems are all pure red on all 3 plants but I'm putting that down to the invisiblesunleds?
Any help be appreciated ..
ALSO, on this same plant I've notice a JUST a couple pistils at the top bud sites already orange. I've read it could be due to hermie but I've gone through this plant with a fine comb and havnt seen one sac.

Re: Purple on underside of leafs?
Nah it don`t look like the stress type purps and i see quite a few of that strain carry purps trait, it looks pretty standard stuff to me from here and really no sweat. Wait till when you cut ferts out and put them on water only for a few weeks at back end of your grow when your leaves usually turn yellow well with these i really think the red/purps coloring will really show through and plants will look super sexy. But yes I'm just looking at the plant stems and all are green and healthy its usually red/purps starts showing their firstly if it`s stress related sowing through. But I'm of opinion its really nothing to sweat about.
Here`s one i did earlier with similar red/purps trait.

The stems to the leafs have all gone red, but that's on all 3 plants and iknow the invisiblesunleds can make that happen.

Re: Purple on underside of leafs?
Red leaf stems is pretty much standard on shit loadsa strains nowadays. It`s more a worry when the stems on actual plant are turning dark red, then again sometimes they are but more a striped red/green like a footy shirt, stressed out looking is real dark red/purps generally caused by cold temps. But again its not that black and white and lots of the time theirs many different factors to T.I.C. But i really think your good with those and tis more plants natural traits coming through, well it looks that way to me anyhow.
If you put them on a water only diet last 2 weeks of bloom it will really bring the red coloring out as plant loses and uses its green from leafage they will red up to max, for sure.

Re: Purple on underside of leafs?
With Jimmi.
Purple bits seems to be rife on indoor modern hybrids.
I wouldn't worry about it. I've had seedlings with purple undersides of leaves from the off and they turned out just fine.
Your plants look real healthy.
Good luck with the rest of the grow Benji!
