It has been dippin down to about 60 lately during lights off.... But its the only plant showing any purple. Its almost like a brownish purple.
 
what is the temp when the lights are on??
and around what day did the leaves start to turn purple?
not stems, leaves
 
if you get cool air on it (usually if the temp drops below 15 degrees or more from your max temp, many strains will turn purple. Doesn't look sick though.... I think it is just the strain.. No idea what it is though, huh??

No Idea. All the seeds came from bags of high mids, or kindbud. Started out with 14. Ended up with 7 males:evil:, 1 hermie:spew:, and 6 girls :bigjoint:.
 
I can see a few problems just by lookin at the pictures. looks like it's overwatered (drooping leaves/light yellowing leaves) combined with overfertilization or salt build up (leaf tips are burned),with a possible ph problem... all of which is causing nutrient lockout (phosphrus deficiency- purple stems and leaves, chlorosis-green to yellow foliage transformation) ... sources listed below

Good eye, and good info. I made a noob mistake about 2 weeks from seed and flushed all the plants with ph'd well water that is treated with a salt softener system:wall:. Noticed the difference immediately, and its been a up hill battle since then. I also used 1/2 gallon pots the whole way through. Next time Ill be using 3 gallon square pots. This grow has been a learning experience for sure. I just got my "exotic"(lol) seeds in the mail, but I have to say overall the bagseed buds look mighty cristaly....:blsmoke:

hey dude.. no worries, you will get the hang of things soon enough. Those are all common mistakes a lot of people make, i made them too.. just part of the learning curve. also, i was looking at one of the pictures and was wondering if you tried to top the plant? It looks like you may have done it a little to late once they were in flowering possibly?... just making mention of it because you it's not usually a good idea to top/ prune in most cases while the plant is flowering. Also, the plants look aweful stretched, so it probably wouldnt have hurt to have kept your light closer.

I actually just harvested my blue cheese!.. it's pretty good. it had sticky,chunky, dense nugs that smelled just like the breeder claims. blueberry with musky cheese undertone, bullseye! sweet blueberry taste. wasn't quite as potent as a couple of the other strains i ran though...

Good looking out.. That one plant was topped a few days before flower. None of the plants are over 14" tall. Yeah, looking forward to get the blue cheese going. I've also heard good things about A-train. Also got 4 clones going that were takin about 3 weeks ago from the 1 with the purple leaves. I'm gonna take prob 12 clones from them and flower em while my exotics veg.:eyesmoke:

Why the hell is everyone tripping out about purple leaves?

They look good man. Barneys farm seeds are dank have a good grow and a good next grow.:peace:
 
Yeah I dont think you should be worried about a lil purple, leaves maybe droopy but water/feed her and she will perk up just fine, plants look darn good from some bagseed, should be happy. Keep up the good work, Peace

Hi there. I think your plants look pretty good! 3 of them have a fair way to go. I think if you budded them out properly for like another 25 -30 days (two will have to be harvested slightly before that maybe) you will (not should) get between 8-14 grams per plant. Thats a minimum of 40g. Feed them all nutes accordingly, but dont overfeed, say every other watering with half strength to test for reactions. Remember to flush and feed them water only for last two weeks. This is absolutely vital in my opinion.
 
Lookin good. Your leave color is a)genetic or b)low temps or c)deficiency. But you will get some killer buds in 3-4 weeks when those girls finish up. Enjoy.
