I grew GDP by Blimburn Seeds last grow, and the purple showed up most predominantly in the larger leafs and not so much up at the tip of the buds where the growth is both newer and smaller.

it doesnt really look light related.

but it is often a great idea to dim lights if you think you have issues.

depending on your dirt and food it could be several other things.

if you really only have at most 2 weeks leave it alone. most things you do to her to fix her wont work in the timeframe.

if you have longer, and depending on what you have her in and what she is feeding on, you might want to try something pretty passive like a tea or a top dressing of worm castings or along those lines.

id bet its not lights though. i can point to several things that say not lights. your green is fading not cooking.

In his other thread he had the light at 14" or 1800ppfd then raised it to 1400ppfd. Thats way too much without co2 and multipe feeds per day imo. Leds don't fry the plant right away like a hps would if its too close. It shows up a couple days later ime. I'd bet anything that played a role. I'd also bet anything that its so close to being done it won't matter much.

I see natural growth. It's lighter and as it ages, it gets darker. You sort of want this. It's the plant telling you that it's low on nitrogen and now would be a good time to flip.
If you flip while the plant has excess nitrogen, then it continues to stretch. Flip it and as it stops stretching, it will need less nitrogen and it will balance out.

week 7? well, no matter what happened, raise the light (or growsince79 said you did, so good there) and keep on keeping on.

i dont do the flushing or anything like that, but if you havent and that is something you want to do, you might do it now.

sorry, didnt read the other 2 threads, growsince79 seems to be on top of things!

Its a beautiful grow anyways. I been at it decades and still have never had an absolute perfect crop. Something can always be improved.

is there anyway at all the yellowing could be from over watering ? i am using fabric pots and i noticed tonight that it seems like the top have of the pot will be dry but the bottom will still feel damp the 2 that this is happening too is about a foot off the floor and doesn't seem to dry out as fast as the one closer to the floor the other 5 plants are 3 inches from the floor

Could be root issues involved. Do you see any gnats?

which is good, never stop asking questions.

like what causes "LED/Light Burn"

not enough vitamins to keep up with the energy from the light?

or why do my flower tops fade to a lime green the first week or two or three after switching to 12/12
