hey guys, i have a 3 month old plant not very big but that was due to lighting which i have changed to CLFs and she was growing good and now i noticed my main stem (the top) has a purple stem as weell as the leaves stems and what not. whats going on? i thought a purple stem meant everything was good and the red stem was bad?
 
We need:
Pictures (without HPS)

Nutrients
Strain
Lighting
Environment
Miscellaneous

Then we can help you. Otherwise you are not going to be happy with the outcome.
 
here is some pics, the purple stem dont look bad in the pics but it is, also the leaves are a little wrinkled? idk how to explain it but youll notice in the pics also with the yellowing of leaves

im using MG.
CFLs for lighting (2 bulbs).
this is Northern Light.
no nuts just whats in the soil.
temp is 75, humidity 40%

also i mist water on her ever few days every other watering. i used to sprey Co2 water on her but stopped a few weeks ago;

and some leave tips are yellowing? i know it means its getting nut burn but if it has a defic. then idk how it would be getting burned
 
Looks to be showing the first signs of nitrogen deficiency. The plant is a overall light green color and yellowing from the bottom up. The purple stems are the first signs of phosphorous deficiency.
 
Be careful misting water on it because the lights will focus through the droplets and burn holes in your leaves.

I don't think it's nutrient burn. The tips don't look burnt they look yellow. Burnt is dry and crispy at the tip. I think Fazer1rig could be right. But I don't do soil at all. But with the additional information you'll get good help now :)

Oh and your plant looks pretty good over all.
 
okay, thanks guys appreciated, friday ill be going out to grab some nutes and feed this women and ill put up a nice update
 
GH general organics nutes are very forgiving..look like N and some calmag+ in the water. They have a GO box with full line..$35.Clear pots hurt you btw.
 
How big are the pots you are using? 3 Months is a long time, and if your girls are root bound that can cause all kinds of problems. Clear pots can be an issue, especially for such an extended period of time. You can wrap the pot in something Opaque to keep light from getting to the roots and that will be fine.
 
Yeah it's just starting to get root bound and the container is wrapped with duct tape but I'm transplanting her into a black five gal pale
