This is my first grow and i am in week two of 12/12. The flowers are beggining to blossom but some of the lower branches are showing purple in the leaves surrounding the blossom. -Is this normal? or maybe its due to the type of plant? Pixs are below

Until last week i was only running 1 400W HPS but now I am running two 400W bulbs (1-HPS & 1-MH) & 1 -15' flouesnet tube. -Any comments on my lighting?

Recently I have adjusted the nutes somewhat adding more Potash & Mg from a hydroponic solution for aquatic plants (from a friend). I am also using a spray bottle (with a light nute solution) to leave-feed a couple of times a day * keep it moist.

-Am I doing anything i shouldnt be, is there anything else i should be doing that i am missing?

Any & All comments are helpful Thanks All

I dont know if i would spray that often, the plant has a natural defense system which will make the leaves build up a resin coat to prevent drying out. By keeping the leaves wet the plant does not need to and also could cause mold later down the road. I only sprayed a few times towards the end because the buds were taking all the moister.

Do you know what strain it is? Some strains naturally have deep purple buds/leaves. Those look awfully dark, but I'm sure that's not uncommon with certain strains.

no i dont know the strain, i was fooling around with the seeds and ended up getting plants to grow. The strange thing is the leaves have been curling upward for last 3 months and i can not get them to turn down. The lower fan leaves are the only ones that are not curled. I had heard it was a MG deficiency and tried epsom salts but have not had any luck remidying the plant. (see pixs)
