Purple plants indicates either strain or not enough heat..What degrees is your room during lights out?

I don't think so I looked that up and tried it I flushed it with regular water a week ago when it first started because of the lockout from feeding too much right? but it didn't really change anything I have 2 plants a 400w hps they went to 12/12 on feb 1. botanicare treatment ocean forest fox farm soil pictures on the way I use a gallon of water like every 2 days when they get dry

With the leaf damage, looks like nute burn, but the purple looks like P deficiency.
How much are you feeding?
You mention flushing, but remember, damaged leaves will not 'heal'.

well it seems to be getting purple to me but I did not really think about the possibility of them being able to heal themselves im doin the botanicare treatment I fill a gallon jug of water with 5 teaspoons of progrow 2 tespoons liquid karma and 2 teaspoons of berry sweet I was only feeding them a gallon between the two of them and then found out that I needed to bump it up to a gallon a piece

It seems to be a fine line between genetics and deficiencies... best bet if ur wanting colors of any sort it would be best to keep temp between 65-70. Anything more is up to the plant.... good luck....
