Why do I always see Red?
All the plants I have grown always get red veins on leafs and stems, espically in the early stages of life. for example...
3.5 weeks old. All Sativa Dominant except the One Indica which has bigger fan leafs also the most purpal veins right up the stem of the small plant.
ProMix with added perlite Ph 7, Ph Runoff was 6.5, Water with 2.5ml of Pure BLend Pro Grow per gallon, and superThrive, Ph 6.7-6.8. Water with every watering. Recomended Dose of Nutes on bottle is 7ml per gallon for seedlings and cuttings.
I started to give 1.5ml Per gallon of nutes at 2.5 weeks because the lower leafs were yellowing (I figured Nitrogen). At this point (2.5 weeks) I had purpal veins and stems as well. I am now up to 2.5ml at 3.5 weeks. (Im scared of overdoing it and burning my small plants) I have read the charts on the forums. It says red stems can be a P K problem.
Could Pure Blend Pur Grow Pro not have enough of The P K elements I need or should I just bump of the amount I am giving these plants?
Should I mix some of the Pure Blend Bloom into the nutes to add a bit more
P K?
like say 2.5ml Pur Grow and 1.5ml Bloom? Or could this really hurt my plants?
I haven't grown much but every small plant I have ever had has had purpal stems, somtimes it gets better as the plant gets bigger, somtimes worse. The plants still grows but it suks ass cuz I know its not right.
Anyways Perhaps im being over worried. I really want this small crop to work out to its best for some sativa lovin'. Im so sick of indica.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
