some strains are like that... some would be red, some purple.. i've even seen green..

:P

as for ferts...I don't usually fert until flowering because the soil i use has fertilizer in it to begin with.. the only people that really fertilize right from the start are hydro growers
BobBong Reviewed by BobBong on . red stems and leaves My plants are about 2 weeks into veg and they have red stems and the center of the leaves are red. They look really healthy otherwise, but I was curious if this was normal? Also, when should my first fert be? and what product would you recommend? Rating: 5
