Like, he cited his argument with the same work I used to prove him wrong, and he is still arguing he's right. I may have learned this shit just today, but I at least read what the fuck is cited.

What you just posted is still listing cyanidin as a subset of anthocyanin, and a pigment responsible for color degrees according to pH from red at <3, violet at neutral, and blue at >11, not a colorless compound that, when combined with glucose, adds up to anthocyanin.

His argument is also that it's nothing but sugar (glucose) and that it has no benefit compared to green, though your sources and mine list it as an antioxidant, potential anticarcinogenic, diabetes and obesity treatment, and anti-inflammatory.

Anthocyanin is a reversible reation where by it can split back into cyanidin and glucose and hence the purple can dissapear or be transient. Youve mis read wiki and ive not given one single word of missinformation or bs on the subject :-)
Can you not read. The very substance your talking about gives the purple color.

It is normal for cannabis to change color. Everything from black to pink. Fall colors.

This is exactly what the fuck I called you all here for. White's pretty much got what I'm trying to say.

Not dealing with this argumentative, foul mouthed, un-educated novice anymore. Hes trolling a thread which is not about this and was made to ask for growers experiences not opinions. All hes done is post a purple stemmed seedling pic and gone on some big rant whilst calling me a troll and moron.

Thanks for not clearing his problems up and not helping with the original question which was not relevant to this crap :-(

The op has lack of experience. I grow guerilla outdoors. Cannabis can and will change color.

Does the color effect it?

The plants on the left and right are both Heisenbergs. The middle a dinafem.

See the bigger Heisenberg on the right? It is turning purple and yellow. It has had purple streaks all its life.

It is clearly the biggest plant.

I don't know what else to say. If the plant looks healthy, any color of the rainbow is OK.

Nevermind, I think I see the disconnect, except the specific chemical it becomes is cyanin, which falls into the anthocyanin group. It does not become colorless just because glucose is severed from it, though.

Wow, so many pages. I explained it very simply earlier.

Stems that go purple or have the stripes is just excess sugar and is by no means a real issue.

Red stems are bad. Don't confuse the 2.

Purple/green stems = good
Red stems = bad

Everyone got it?

@Kingrow1 Allow me to apologize, I mistook you for saying cyanidin + glucose = anthocyanidin, not anthocyanin, which is, in fact, my mistake, but it is not colorless (unless the corresponding anthocyanidin/cyanidin is colorless) and it is not JUST sugar, it is highly medically useful. But cyanidin + glucose specifically becomes cyanin which is A TYPE of anthocyanin, which is my original point.

He blocked me, can someone convey this last message for me? Because I have, in fact, made an ass of myself, and I would like to make it right.

Typically, though, cyanin/cyanidin is not colorless from why I am finding and is more commonly the blue/violet that we see in plants. It does have a colorless form, though, apparently, from what I'm being told.

I disagree. Red = p def = ok
