Hey everyone. This is my first grow ever. It's a grape ape strain and is in its (around) second week. I'm kinda worried because the second set of leaves seem to have a kinda purple color to them...i don't think it's brown but sorta purple. Is it normal or is there something wrong with my setup. Thanks for your help... here's a pic

Do you have any idea as to what may be the problem

What type of lights are you using, and how close are they? How good is your ventilation? And how often are you watering it?

I'm using a 125w cfl. I just added a big fan close to the plant yesterday. I water it when I see that the soil is drying up

Oh yeah and the plant is around 4 inches from cfl

how cold does it get at night?

nothing you can do, the soil looks poor but that shouldnt cause the purpling. Just wait it out.

50 deg. is pretty damn cold and can shut down plant growth.
These guys have a point about your soil too.
