Pictures.
Pictures, or at the very least info regarding your set up.
Some plants just have a purp pheno, low temps late in flowering will cause the leaves to purp up nice.
The yellowing is a Nutrient or Ph issue, which one is what we need more info to discern.

I would bet you have two things going on..
First, you need to get some N to that baby.. she is very hungry.
Secondly, I would ask if your night time temps have been getting colder than usual? That can cause a bit of slowdown of P (or is it k?) uptake causing some bluish/reddish hues in flowering.

Don't do anything. Not yet. If it's just a couple leaves. If it starts to get worse then you may have an issue. but for 1 or 2 leaves to be discolored. it could be an old issue that has been corrected but the leaf is still going to continue to fade.
If you have a bunch of leaves different colors in different spots then you will have to figure out what to do. but for now. nothing.
If it is an N deficiency then your plant will continue to yellow. if that happens use MORE Nitrogen(usually adding a little Grow nutes to the mix will help)
If it continues to purple, it's either A too high Phosphorous(which i do all the time to get Purple plants)
or B your temps are dropping MORE than 15 degrees F over night.(which is also not much of an issue)
Good luck

I'll stay subbed up. but WATCH THEM... don't just assume everything is ok because i told you not to do anything.
I am saying it could be nothing because the damage is so confined to a few leaves. IF it gets worse, post the pics and most of the people on here trying to help you including myself will do what we can.
