    Most of the time this means the plant is going threw fluctuation in temperatures. warm days cold nights will purple them up.

    From what i understand, it is either Phosphorous and/or Magnesium deficiency OR a genetic trait.

    My Sweettooth 1.1 has very purple stems. In its case, it is a genetic trait, i believe.

    It works like a vaporizer. We'll get stoned through the vents on the way there.

    If the"dark" is like black and right at the soil line, watch out for some sort of rotting problem.

    If it's not genetic it's a P deficiency. It's time to add nutes.
