Genetics or nitrogen deficient?

hey guys,

Bit of a noob and only in my second grow but have had great results thanks to this site. Have a question about my girl, she is starting to turn red/purple on some of the bigger fan leaves and starting to turn on the sugar leaves to. She seem to be and looks really healthy, I am about 6 weeks into flower so hopefully only another 2-3 to go, I'm unsure of the strain.

She is starting to smell amazing.

They Look Great, My Blueberry always does that exact same thing, And my Blue Dream also will. right around 2 to 3 weeks left in the cycle. So IMO they look just lovely and keep up the good work.
 
This is my girl today, she still seems very healthy bottem leaves are yellowing, purple has spread a lot, Iv been reading a lot and it sounds like it could be front the cold weather? Could anyone tell me if this is what that looks like.

Too much P - too EARLY!

Don't start any "bloom" Nutrient till 2 weeks AFTER the flip!

Do you use a PK booster?

If yours looks like this - same problem.

Nutrient companies are notorious for too much - too soon on raising P levels!

Problems like that limit your chances of reaching the "plant potential".

Higher K levels express potential coloring - I like some higher K levels all the way through....But not for that reason.
Too high a K stunts plants and limits yields!

No Dr.. as you can see on my avatar, That is my blueberry leaves are green and flowers are rather blue, like blueberries. lol. I use a 1,3,2, booster and not a lot very small amounts unless they look like they want a treat, Thanks for the info.
Ralph how cold is your room?
 
My room is getting down to 15degrees c over night, sits around 21 during the day. I'll check the nutrients I'm using when I get home today, it is a bloom one, and I think I started it about a week after flip.
 
Is there anything I can do to help her out? Should I be giving her a good flush? Only had a couple weeks to go I think, don't know the strain so just guessing but 2-4max
 
Purple stems are a symptom of absorption problems. Elements like magnesium and calcium help plants absorb the other stuff like nitrogen and potassium. It's possible you just need to give them a good dose of cal-mag or top dress with dolomite lime. I find adding some lime and oyster flour to my mix when I recycle the soil will solve this issue permanently but the only quick fix is cal/mag. The crushed oyster shell helps regulate ph in the root zone while the lime helps uptake everything else. Soft rock phosphate does much the same thing but it takes forever to work in soil. It is also possible that if your temps are dropping low during the dark hours that can cause similar absorption problems. I had plants on a cold concrete floor did the same thing until I elevated them on milk crates.

looks ok to me, leaves always turn near the end, if you only have a week to go I would quit giving nuets, is it drinking water and drying up ok? if so don't panic, I am sure your trichomes are looking really good right. are they getting mily yet?
IMO it looks good.

Thanks guys, have stopped feeds now, not sure how many more weeks, trichomes are still mostly clear, about 15% orange pistols, the buds are amazing, thanks for the reassurance will just let her be and see what happens. When should I flush?
