This is my very first grow. I am a current ommp cardholder i need some advice cause i am unsure this is normal. My leaves are a beautiful green but i noticed that some stems are red and the top of the stem has a red dot on it. I have a soil tester and my ph level is perfect from what i have read which is about 7. Below are some pics I was told that these are the strain called trainwreak

Some nutritional and environment information would be really useful.

Soil Brand. Amendments.
Nutrients used. Frequency. Volume.
Temperature and humidity. Lights on and off.

Right off the bat I'd say they could, possibly, be a little rich on N and a little lean on P. I could be wrong, this could be strain specific, but the leaves have the kind of bluish-green appearance that precedes nitrogen toxicity issues.

Probably nothing to worry about. Low night temperatures can have the same effect on the plant. Genetics play their role as well. Could even just be the lighting and the camera. Get back at me with the other info.

Start cutting back on the nutrients. You are probably on the verge of over feeding them. 3tsp of grow, 2tsp of micro, and 1tsp of bloom is A LOT of food. Maybe if you were running HID bulbs and CO2 supplementation... but not on T5s... at least not for most plants.

In my own grow I would cut out at least 1tsp of the floragrow. The lower ec and new npk ratio should make a difference in the long run.

Well man, yer setup sounds like its fine, The stems turning red are usually a temp issue before a Nute issue IF there is a problem at all. Alot of the time it's just a common thing in some strains. BTW I grew up in Bend, OR so Central oregon Love goin out to ya! hehe, I would love to go back to bend and do an outdoor grow! OMG! hehe. I'll do some research on that strain for ya and get back to ya on if it's common in that strain for red stems

Just put em out in the sun and watch em go hehe. I know its hella dry out there, being high desert and all, but I think the plants would do well out there, just research yer outdoor soil and water em regularly and i think it would be great.

and living in central oregon for 8 years eh? how funny would that be if we've met haha. I'm not going to tell you who i am though due to the fact that you might be a chick and the fact that you might be one of the chicks i pissed off haha. I did that alot, not intentionally, they just seemed to always want more than what i wanted
