Purple leaves towards end of flowering?

So I have 2 plants that currently have the top sets of leaves turning purple. I am 4 days out from 9 weeks of flowering so I hope this won't be a problem as I plan to harvest soon. Trichomes still seem to be pretty clear though so we will see.

Any idea though if this will cause a problem?

I believe low temps can bring colours out aswell, infact some people like to get a big swing in temp for that purpose

Temps reach about 58 at night. About 70 in the day. Timer also malfunctioned and didn't turn the lights on for one maybe two days.

2nd timer I've had this problem with. Annoying.

what breeder or strain is it? above answers are correct as far as "purps" go. I have some sin city - alien nightmare finishing up and the purps are beautiful and the buds are fat and sticky, so im really digging it! you'll probably love the outcome

Its fine , genetics can show variations. But with the low temps it can produce this.
I had 60 degree nights last year that produced it , didnt add or take away anything , just
looked cool.

Here was my skunk - it did not add purp all the way thru ... Just near buds.

Lovely colors, cool temps often bring them out in certain phenotypes. No problem. 58f is a bit cool, but not "bad."

Definitely the temps my man. The leaves look very healthy otherwise.

most purple and blue strains have a colour shift during a cool night

actually 10% to 30% of most indica doms will show some kind of blue or purple leaf colour if you let them get down under 18c at night
