Purple Seedlings

i have 4 seedls i just germinated that are just sprouted and 2 out or 4 of them have purple leaves and stems.. one of them is kinda yellow ish with purple leaves but the part of the taproot that isburied int he rockwool ( that i can see) is green, thats Greenhouse Trainwrecc and the other one is white widow x big bud.. i am wondering if the water i used to soak the rockwool was too cold or something :( somebody please tell me that this means nothing.. which im guessing it is as ive seen purple seedlings before and havent had any significant problems but i never knew what it was... anyone?

why do some plants have green stems other than genetics? there was someone explaining why it happened but i dont remember what they said :(

i dont understand the question . but genes determine everything from color taste potency cloning ease ect . i will say every skunk hybrid ive grown has purple leaf stems and maroon streaks going down trunk

im saying i know there are colors related to strains. i was thinking that a strain that wasnt ordinarily purple could turn purple (the stem at least) though. im not sure if thats true but if it is why does it happen? sorry if this poorly explained or w/e im really tired

streaks in the stem can b a sign of stress too much water 4 example or u could have a different pheno in a specific group showing recessed traits or take after one parent over another , ie: showing a heavy sativa vs the normal indica traits , which usually show up in a less worked line or f1s
