Slightly shimmery leaves

I have noticed lately that the leaves on my plant shimmer with like almost a translucent gold color in the areas where growth is new and near to the stems.

Does this look like a mild copper deficiency? Or is it just hydration in the leaves? This is my first grow and I've had some problems, but I thought I mostly had them worked out.
Is this something I should worry about or is it good?

Its hard to see in the pics. The shimmer is almost like a holographic sticker, very prismatic shine.
It looks cool as shit honestly, I'm hoping its just how this strain is meant to look.

If you could post pics without the hps your more likely to get accurate replies and help.
Some more info would help as well.
medium soil/coco
feedings/how much/how often
Does it start at the top or bottom of the plant
A lot of def/toxicity look similar. Take over/under watering for example completely opposite problems but the symptoms are almost identical. Anytime you run into problems post as much info as possible.
